Abstract
A router for routing data redundantly relative to a network. The router includes a circuit card having a processor, a user port for connecting at least one user device with the processor, and a plurality of interface ports for redundantly connecting the processor with the network to provide active redundant communication with the user device(s). This router can have a small form factor, can be ruggedized, and can provide fast redundant routing through redundant network backbones.
