Both ports can be active at the same time. In the event of a port failure, traffic destined for the failed port can be set to automatically route to the remaining operational port (see “ATM Configuration Menu” in your switch’s User Guide).

Both models use longwave 1300 nm fiber optic connectors to connect devices over single mode (10 km/6.2 mi) or multimode (2 km/1.2 mi) fiber optic cable.
