Hi Steven,

yes, you're right: this could work.
In addition to your other suggestion I will create additional ports A&B (named 
like the coupler ports) for every shared port instead of one single Port - for 
instance:

Port 1/1 (remove)
Port 1/1A
Port 1/1B

I think this will catch our cabling necessities ;-)

Thanks for your quick responses!

Best regards

Joerg Schneider
