The figure below shows the system-redundant connection of nine IO devices using three
switches. This configuration, for example, allows you to arrange IO devices in several
cabinets.

Note
Logical structure and topology
The topology itself does not determine if IO devices are connected one-sided or in a
configuration with system redundancy. This is determined in the course of configuration. You
can configure the IO devices in the first figure, for example, as one-sided instead of the
system-redundant setup.
