Kyland PRP/HSR Redbox and Industrial Ethernet Switches
IndustrialComms is a UK distributor of Kyland Technology, supplying industrial Ethernet switches and redundancy modules for substation, rail and process automation networks where downtime is not acceptable.
Kyland's Ruby3A redundancy boxes and HSR/PRP modules implement both Parallel Redundancy Protocol (IEC 62439-3-4) and High-availability Seamless Redundancy (IEC 62439-3-5) in FPGA hardware, delivering zero recovery time and zero packet loss on link failure , rather than the millisecond-scale reconvergence of a conventional ring protocol. PRP and HSR are software-selectable on the same platform, and Quadbox mode allows the two to be bridged.
Switches for substation use are built to IEC 61850-3 and IEEE 1613 with hardware-based IEEE 1588v2 time synchronisation. The rail range is certified to EN 50155 and rated from -40°C to +75°C.
Tell us your redundancy requirement, protocol and operating environment and our team will specify the right Kyland platform.
