Quick Networking Question:

Can the Hog-Net ports on two Road Hog Full Boars be linked together with a single cable to support network tracking and failover?

If so will a regular network cable suffice, or must it be a crossover?

Cheers,

    i don't think you can run failover like that... unless you have an A/B switch on you physical DMX outputs... understand me correctly, if you main desk outputting DMX fails, the backup desk won't output DMX through the failed desk - thats another story if running by DP's where the backup desk will take over and output DMX from DP's - or as said, use an A/B switch to switch DMX lines from Main to backup desk.

    hope that helped (if you needed any)
