ok, finally I'am going to use it on passive CWDM system with simple 
transponders (in fact, ethernet converters).
Now, there is my question:

- port 4:1 and 4:2 are load sharing, both 1000BaseT.
What happens if port 4:1 goes down ?
will the transmission run non interrupted via port 4:2 ? (with 
insufficient bandwith)

Ok, let's say, that one of the links goes down, but physically 4:1 and 
4:2 are UP - as I understand, I should use LACP to keep it running 
correctly via remaining link ?

Regards,
Marcin
