Installing an Optional SFP Transceiver

Figure 3-4. Inserting an SFP Transceiver into a Slot

The switch supports 100BASE-FX, 100BASE-BX, 1000BASE-SX, 1000BASE-LX,
1000BASE-LH and other SFP-compatible transceivers.

To install an SFP transceiver, do the following:

1.

Consider network and cabling requirements to select an appropriate SFP
transceiver type.

2.

Insert the transceiver with the optical connector facing outward and the slot
connector facing down. Note that SFP transceivers are keyed so they can only
be installed in one orientation.

3.

Slide the SFP transceiver into the slot until it clicks into place.

Note: SFP transceivers are hot-swappable. The switch does not need to be powered off

before installing or removing a transceiver. However, always first disconnect the
network cable before removing a transceiver.

Note: SFP transceivers are not provided in the switch package.
