Enable Redundancy for Pathfinder Core PRO with Backup License
The Axia 3002-00003-000 Pathfinder Core PRO Backup License provides a reliable hot standby solution for your Pathfinder Core PRO system. Traditionally, achieving controller redundancy required purchasing two physical appliances. With this backup license, you can configure a virtual machine as a standby Pathfinder Core PRO instance, giving you the same protection and continuity with a more cost-effective approach.
Affordable Hot Standby for Broadcast Routing Systems
Instead of deploying a second hardware appliance, this license allows a backup Pathfinder Core PRO to run virtually, significantly reducing hardware investment while maintaining critical redundancy. In the event of a primary system failure, the licensed backup system takes over routing control automatically, keeping your broadcast operations online without disruption.
90-Day Failover Window for Peace of Mind
Once the backup license is activated, it allows the virtual Pathfinder instance to take over full operations for up to 90 days in the event the primary system becomes unavailable. This generous failover window ensures that your team has time to diagnose, repair, and restore the primary service while staying on air.
Automatic Service Resync After Primary Recovery
After the failover period begins, the backup license expects the system to resync with the primary Pathfinder Core PRO within 90 days. Once the original system is restored, the backup returns to standby mode, ready to protect against future outages. This cycle ensures long-term redundancy without requiring constant manual management.
Ideal for Broadcasters Seeking High Availability
This license is perfect for media facilities where consistent uptime is critical. Whether you’re managing large networked audio infrastructures or remote studio connections, having a virtual Pathfinder Core PRO instance as a failover reduces the risk of downtime and ensures continuous signal flow and control logic management during outages.
Virtual Machine Deployment Simplifies Setup
The Pathfinder Backup License is intended for use on a virtual machine, which simplifies deployment and reduces the need for additional rack space or dedicated hardware. It integrates into existing IP-based routing environments, allowing broadcasters to create a robust, high-availability system using existing infrastructure.
One-Time License for Permanent Backup Capability
This is a permanent license that enables backup functionality within a designated Pathfinder Core PRO system. Once configured, your VM-based backup remains ready to step in whenever needed—no subscription fees or license renewals required.
