2.2
Coupling of network segments
The example of a coupling between two ring networks using two SCALANCE X101-1 media
converters is only indirectly possible via nodes capable of redundancy (e.g. SCALANCE X-
400). This applies to all SCALANCE X-100 media converters.
The following figure shows the standby coupling of two redundant rings using the
master/slave concept of the SCALANCE X-400 with SCALANCE X101-1 or SCALANCE
X101-1LD media converters.
