•Professional IT switches (Cisco C2960G-8)
•No external routing device required for routing between OnAir Control
and Livewire network (done by Cisco C2960G-8)
•Cisco C2960G-8 has no fan
Disadvantages •Less flexible as manual IP address configuration required
•No redundant power supply available for Cisco C2960G-8
This solution is suitable for single consoles as well as for small OA3k /
Livewire networks with a few consoles and Livewire nodes.
The following picture shows a single OnAir3000 console with one D21m
Livewire card equipped, where the CORE and DESK containers have a
manually defined and fix IP address.
An additional Livewire node is connected to switch.
We recommend using the manageable switch Cisco WS-C2960G-8TC-L
Basic configuration files are provided by STUDER.
Customer switch configurations for this type of network topology are avail-
able for

As the picture on the following page shows, an additional Cisco C2960 switch
can be connected to a trunk port of the Master switch to expand the Control /
Livewire range. To expand the control network range only, a simple Layer-2
switch can be connected to a control port.
