There's a good chance you're misinterpreting, John. In the field of
modular switches (whether you're talking about telco switches or
computer network switches or electrical switches) redundancy is
implemented on a module level as a means of achieving greater
reliability. If the primary module fails for some reason, the switch
is able to use the redundant secondary module to maintain normal
function. In high-density telco switches, it's common to have
redundancy all the way up to the single-board computer that controls
the whole switch.
