• Selectable failover and bypass scenario 

• Completely adjustable via TCP/IP via web interface

• Fully adjustable via API for custom applications

• Syslog output to manage the device for individual customer applications

• Built-in watchdog for automatic failover switching

• Built-in email notification in case of failover

• 2 switchable power ports on the back of the device for remote restart

The failover scenario ensures smooth and reliable operation of two PBXs side by side, with the second becoming active only after the first has failed, minimizing downtime (see image). This scenario is interesting not only in the case of failures but can also be used during maintenance, repair, or upgrade of your telecommunications equipment. 

The bypass scenario is interesting for customers who want to retain their old phone system and add new functionalities by placing a new PBX in front of the old one (for example, an Asterisk system). With the bypass scenario, you have the option to add a new PBX between the PSTN lines and the outgoing lines of the old PBX system. In the event of a failover, the PSTN lines are transparently reconnected to the existing old PBX (see image).
