Troubleshooting Troubleshooting Software Loading Failure If software loading fails, the system runs the old version of the software. In this case, check if the physical ports are properly connected. If the ports are not properly connected, reconnect them correctly and restart the loading process. If the ports are properly connected, check the loading process information displayed on HyperTerminal for input errors.

BIDI optical transceivers use different central wavelengths in the transmitting and receiving directions, and thereby support bi-directional transmission of optical signals through the same fiber. The BIDI modules must be used in pairs. If an SFP-GE-LX-SM1310-BIDI is used at one end, an SFP-GE-LX-SM1490-BIDI must be used at the other end.
Appendix B Installation of Lightning Arrester for Network Interfaces You can install a lightning arrester only for the 10M/100M electrical Ethernet interfaces supporting RJ-45 connectors. No lightning arrester for network interface is supplied with the switch. If an outdoor network cable should be directly led to the switch, please serially connect the lightning arrester for the network interface before you plug this cable into the switch, thus to prevent possible damages to the switch due to lightning strike.

If the multimeter displays that the left wire is the zero wire and the right is the live wire, it means that the PE terminal of the arrester is not well grounded. Otherwise, it means that the power receptacle of the arrester is set to the reverse polarity. In this case, open the power receptacle of the arrester and correct the polarity.
