Hi George,
You can setup two pairs of 7731, in parallel but on different channels, providing double the bandwidth/throughput, and if one 7731 ever lost power/is rebooted, the second link maintains your connectivity. This is somewhat better than an unused "backup" link.

If mounting the 7731s on the same pole, separate them by at least 1m/3ft...
Depending on switches/features you might be able to load-balance, or STP might shut down one link.

we have a extra Barracuda link Balancer (hardware) , if we had one for each side would that help with making connections and managing/monitoring links
