| Redundant |
Redundancy is thought to be key for enhanced voice transfer services leading to better VoIP availability. Redundant common logic with efficient load sharing causes faster data path restoration, allowing several passageways for packets to traverse. This way, redundancy increases network reliability by offering alternative paths in case data transmission fails at a certain point.
