IMPACT ASSESSMENT OF MEANS OF CONNECTING THE RESERVE ON THE RELIABILITY INDICATORS OF THE DATA TRANSMISSION SYSTEM
Structural redundancy is included in modern data transmission systems to ensure the specified reliability indicators. Structural redundancy gives the system fault tolerance and significantly increases its reliability. To manage the redundant resource, it is necessary to have additional tools that will connect the redundant equipment to the main configuration of the data transmission system. The redundant equipment is a separate technical means and, from the point of view of reliability, it is connected in series with other modules of the data transmission system.
