Ethernet Architecture
The Synergy system is based on powerful data acquisition hardware coupled to the standard Pentium PC by an internal Gigabit Ethernet switch. When Synergy is used as a standalone recorder, the use of Ethernet provides twice the speed of other interfaces such as USB 2.0 or FireWire. But a more powerful advantage in today’s networked world is the ability to record high-speed data not only to the local disk drive, but directly to a remote PC or file server. This allows you to record the data where it is needed, rather than spending your time transcribing huge files after acquisition. It also allows synchronization, control and real-time viewing of Synergy systems anywhere on your network. Throughput is sufficient to record all channels (up to 64 channels in benchtop mainframe) simultaneously at 200 kS/s each. Multiple systems can be simultaneously controlled to store data on a synchronous basis allowing virtually limitless channels counts at full acquisition rates.

Dual Ethernet Ports
In
many cases, streaming of high-speed data across your corporate network
will be undesirable. For this reason, Synergy provides two external Ethernet
switch ports.
One can be used for a high-speed link to mass storage while the other connects to the company network. Due to the intelligence of the Ethernet switch, high-volume data traffic is sent only to the destination without burdening the company backbone on the other port. Even more importantly, the normal network traffic of email, printing and file storage does not reduce your ability to stream high-speed data. Another handy use for two ports is to quickly connect in-line with your office PC for file transfer, without losing network access or calling in your IT people.
No Wrong Cables
With Synergy’s auto-sensing of network speed AND wiring configuration,
you’ll never be stuck with the wrong cable again. Use either a straight
or cross-over cable, connect to a wall port or to your PC, and Synergy
connects hassle-free.
