Inline Fail Open - (Active or Passive) mode for Gigabit Ethernet (GE) ports requires the use of the external Gigabit fail-open Kit. The Passive Fail Open kit requires a RJ-45 control cable connecting to X1, for example, RJ-11 on NS7500.
Note
Fail-closed mode for GE ports requires no extra hardware; simply connect your fiber cables to the GE port pair (For example: G0/1-G0/2).
For information on how to connect the Sensor with a Gigabit Fail-Open Kit, see the documentation that accompanies the kit. For example, the Active-Fiber (850 nm) 10G (62.5 μm) Bypass Kit includes Trellix IPS 1/10 Gigabit Modular Active Fail-Open Bypass Kit Guide.
