  2. Fibre Channel time-out values - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibre_Channel_time-out_values

    In practice this may be the time for re-calculation of routing tables in network devices. Its default value is 10 seconds. R_T_TOV (Receiver-Transmitter TimeOut Value) is the amount of time that the receiver logic uses to determine loss of sync on the wire. Its default value is 100 milliseconds, but can be changed to 100 microseconds.

  3. Watchdog timer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Watchdog_timer

    Upon final stage timeout, a corrective action is initiated, but no other stage is started because the end of the cascade has been reached. Typically, single-stage watchdog timers are used to simply restart the computer, whereas multistage watchdog timers will sequentially trigger a series of corrective actions, with the final stage triggering a ...

  4. High-voltage switchgear - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-voltage_switchgear

    750 kV high-voltage switchgear. High-voltage switchgear is any switchgear used to connect or disconnect a part of a high-voltage power system.This equipment is essential for the protection and safe operation, without interruption, of a high voltage power system, and is important because it is directly linked to the quality of the electricity supply.

  5. Time switch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_switch

    The timer may switch equipment on, off, or both, at a preset time or times, after a preset interval, or cyclically. A countdown time switch switches power, usually off, after a preset time. A cyclical timer switches equipment both on and off at preset times over a period, then repeats the cycle; the period is usually 24 hours or 7 days.

  6. Spanning Tree Protocol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spanning_Tree_Protocol

    The switch with the lowest priority of all the switches will be the root; if there is a tie, then the switch with the lowest priority and lowest MAC address will be the root. For example, if switches A (MAC = 0200.0000.1111 ) and B (MAC = 0200.0000.2222 ) both have a priority of 32,768 then switch A will be selected as the root bridge.

  7. Cut-through switching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cut-through_switching

    Because the switch only ever buffers 64 bytes of each frame, fragment-free is a faster mode than store-and-forward, but there still exists a risk of forwarding bad frames. [7] There are certain scenarios that force a cut-through Ethernet switch to buffer the entire frame, acting like a store-and-forward Ethernet switch for that frame:

  8. Infinite switch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infinite_switch

    An early switch operating by this principle was invented by Chester I. Hall of the General Electric Company, with a patent filed in 1921 and approved in 1924.Like the modern infinite switch, Hall's invention used a bi-metallic strip, heated by a constant current, to break a connection after a given period of time.

  9. Transfer switch - Wikipedia

    Simplified single line diagram of a single-phase transfer switch to select either 'city' (utility) power or local generator power 3-phase Intelligent transfer switch. A transfer switch is an electrical switch that switches a load between two sources. Some transfer switches are manual, in that an operator effects the transfer by throwing a ...
