The following sections detail the minimum modifications necessary to set up a typical
1:1 redundant configuration. In the following setup descriptions, it is assumed Modem A
connections are to the prime modem. While proper switch operation does not require
Modem A to be the prime modem, it should be noted that upon loss of prime power to
the 1:1 switch, Modem A is the default signal pass through path.
