Bypass Ports
When a device connected to other devices through a switch without bypass function, the
device will lose connection if the switch loses power as traffic will not be able to flow through
the link (as shown in the figure below).
Switches with bypass functions provide one or more sets of bypass ports that ensure constant
network connectivity during power failure.
The IGS-9084GP-FB2 provides two sets of bypass fiber ports, giving the SFP fiber ports
addition redundancy capabilities. Connect a LC fiber cable from a fiber port to a monitor port
on the front panel and another LC fiber cable from the corresponding network port to another
switch.
