Two of everything, always
Two hot-swap power supplies, dual fibre uplinks, dual paths into Olivet's network. If one fails, the other carries the full traffic without anyone noticing.
Home›High-Availability Router
Carrier-class inside your rack
Zero single points of failure. Zero.
Zero single points of failure. Every installation ships with a Raisecom RAX711-C-R-AC/DC — a carrier-grade NID router with dual hot-swap power supplies, four 10GE uplinks and sub-50 ms protection protocols. The same kind of equipment backbone operators use at the network edge.
Why it matters
Three benefits of a carrier-class router
A home router is not a business router. Here's what changes.
Millisecond failover
BFD, VRRP, ERPS (G.8032) and MC-LAG. If a link breaks or a gateway fails, switchover takes under 50 ms — imperceptible for VoIP, video calls or SaaS.
Monitored from the NOC
Continuous telemetry (voltage, temperature, SFP DDM, CPU, memory) into Olivet's 24/7 NOC. We see problems before you notice them — and often before they happen.

How it works
Four layers of redundancy
Availability is built. It's not promised.
A · Hardware
RAX711-C-R ports, fabric and dimensions
A half-19-inch form factor (220 × 266 × 44 mm · 2.5 kg · ≤ 40 W). Front panel: 4 × 10 Gbps SFP+ uplinks, 12 × 1 Gbps SFP user ports, one RJ-45 management port and one USB console. 52 Gbps × 2 switching fabric and a 32k MAC address table. Operating temperature of −20 °C to +65 °C, ideal for tech rooms without dedicated cooling.
- 4 × SFP+ 10G · uplink to Olivet's network
- 12 × SFP 1G · flexible customer ports
- Jumbo frames up to 12,288 bytes
- IPv4 and IPv6 dual stack, static and dynamic (OSPF, BGP4)
B · Physical redundancy
Dual power, dual fibre, dual path
The AC/DC variant accepts an AC (220 V) feed and a DC (−48 V) feed simultaneously — or two AC, or two DC. Both are hot-swappable: they can be replaced live without stopping the router. We connect them to independent electrical circuits backed by separate UPS banks.
The dual 10GE uplink exits through two physically separate fibres toward two Telefónica access points. Egress uses LAG or MC-LAG so both paths are active at the same time — not a passive backup, but active-active with double the bandwidth when everything is up.
- 2 × hot-swap PSU · AC 100-240 V or DC −36 to −72 V
- Internal monitoring of voltage and temperature
- L2/L3 Dying Gasp on power loss
- Compliance CE, UL, FCC · RoHS · MEF CE2.0
C · Protection protocols
Detect and react in milliseconds
A redundant router is only useful if it reacts fast when things break. The RAX711 ships with the same protection protocols operator networks rely on:
- BFD (Bidirectional Forwarding Detection): link failure detection in < 50 ms for static and dynamic routes
- VRRP: virtual gateway with shared IP · the customer LAN never loses its gateway
- ERPS G.8032: Ethernet ring protection · < 50 ms switchover on a broken segment
- MC-LAG: dual uplink aggregation across two chassis · zero loss on failover
- MPLS FRR (TE/LDP/VPN) for inter-DC routes
D · OAM and certification
Measurable by the NOC, enforceable in the contract
Protection is worthless if it can't be verified. The RAX711 embeds hardware-based OAM per IEEE 802.1ag and ITU-T Y.1731 (CCM at 3.3 ms minimum interval) for fast fault detection, and Y.1564 SAT integrated to run the same certification delivered with your installation report.
- Y.1731 performance monitoring at microsecond resolution
- Y.1564 SAT for Ethernet, IP and MPLS L2VPN/L3VPN
- TWAMP-Lite for active latency monitoring
- SyncE and IEEE 1588v2 TC · network synchronisation
- SNMPv3, SSHv2, ZTP · secure NOC management

Frequently asked
Technical questions
What systems teams usually ask us about the HA router.
Why do we use the Raisecom RAX711-C-R?
It's a carrier-class NID, not a home router. Dual hot-swap PSU, operating temperature −20 °C to +65 °C, 52 Gbps × 2 fabric and OAM/protection on par with backbone networks.
What does 'uptime target 99.999%' mean?
The industry's 'five nines': at most ≈ 5 min 16 s of outage per year. It's achieved by combining local redundancy (PSU, fibre, sub-50 ms protocols) with network redundancy (dual Cloud Router at BA1 and Templus).
Can I bring my own router?
We deliver the RAX as a service demarcation so we can guarantee the contracted SLA (Y.1564, hardware OAM, BFD). You can plug your firewall/router behind it on a customer port and manage it yourself.
How is firmware updated?
The NOC manages firmware centrally with advance notice, except for critical security updates. The RAX supports ZTP and, thanks to dual PSUs and network redundancy, updates are non-disruptive.
Does it work with DC −48 V power?
Yes. The AC/DC variant accepts an AC feed and a DC feed at the same time (or two of either). Ideal for tech rooms with standard telco DC batteries.
Does it support network synchronisation?
Yes: SyncE and IEEE 1588v2 (PTP TC). Useful for sectors with strict synchronisation needs (finance, broadcast, SCADA) or mobile backhaul over the same connection.
