Hi,
I got in the meantime from FS.com support (Customer Support: +49 (0) 8165 8090 517) an generic compatible BiDi Modul #75335
This has another coding and works with the GS348T Switch.
Here the technical support output of my GS348T Switch with inserted SFP-GE-BX BiDi Modul #75335:*************** show fiber-ports optics-info all *************** Link Link Nominal Length Length Bit Possible 50um 62.5um Rate Speed Port Vendor Name [m] [m] Serial Number Part Number [Mbps] Rev Compliance Supported Detected -------- ---------------- ------ ------ ---------------- ---------------- ------- ---- ---------------- ------------ --------- g49 FS 0 0 S2001345774 SFP-GE-BX 1300 1000BX10 Yes 1G *************** show fiber-ports optics all *************** Output Input Port Physical Port/ Temp Voltage Current Power Power TX LOS Fault Lane Number [C] [Volt] [mA] [dBm] [dBm] Fault Status ------ -------------- ---- ------- ------- ------- ------- ----- --- ------------- g49 g49-Lane1 47.4 3.270 17.7 -5.314 -40.000 No Yes Local Fault

Hi schumaku,
it looks like SFP-BiDi, 1000BASE-BX Single LC SFPs are working in M4300-96x switches, see here
But not in GS348T.
Is there anything that I can do to get this working too?

Lack of a shell access, we customers don't have much options here. Sometimes some fiber module details are visible in the diagnostics file.
Trouble is that either way Netgear does not support these module types, not even any equivalent Netgear models. Tomorrow, with the next update, what appears to works today can fail any time.
The only chance is that Netgear does pick up this issue, and does spend time and effort on it. YeZ please.
