    Hi Joe,

    You are indeed correct about cost/ equipment implications, however the original post did mention 'if he had two III's and 2 DP's'. Hence if you had double kit then the above way remains the best way to do it. At the end of day, what you find is that most shows find the middle ground between cost and back up.

    Having said this, i am of the belief that the only way to have true redundancy in any system is to have double of everything. Of course depending on show/ budget/ physical contstraints, this may not be possible. It is important to remeber every point of failure. Therefore, strictly speaking, if the hog had full redundancy features already, by putting all the above kit (2 III's and 2 DP2K's) into one switch would not offer full redunancy.

    Cheers
