6.

Configure the VC-FC module:

o

If VC-Enet modules are installed in the same enclosure, use the Virtual Connect Manager to
administer VC-FC modules.

o

If VC-Enet modules are not installed in the same enclosure, the VC-FC module operates in the

default configuration only.

Factory default settings

The Virtual Connect Delete Domain operation ("

Deleting a domain

" on page

167

) returns all VC-FC

modules to the factory default settings.
VC-FC modules that are physically removed from a VC domain can be returned to the factory default
settings when placed into a new enclosure by applying power, and then pressing and holding the reset

button on the front panel for at least 10 seconds. When moved from a VC domain and placed into an

enclosure not part of a VC domain, VC-FC modules retain assigned mappings until reset to the factory

default.

Installing SFP/SFP+/XFP transceivers

WARNING:

To avoid serious injury, never look directly into an open transceiver port.

CAUTION:

Disconnect all cables before removing or installing an SFP/SFP+/XFP transceiver,

because of the potential damage to the cables, the cable connector, or the optical interfaces in

the transceiver.
Removing and installing a transceiver can shorten the useful life. Do not remove and insert
transceivers more often than is necessary.

CAUTION:

Do not remove the dust plugs from the fiber-optic SFP/SFP+/XFP transceiver or the

rubber plugs from the fiber-optic cable until you are ready to connect the cable. The plugs and

caps protect the transceiver ports and cables from contamination and ambient light.

1.

Remove the dust cap and save it for future use.

IMPORTANT:

Use only SFP, SFP+, and XFP transceivers approved for this device.

2.

Install the transceiver with the label side up. (SFP transceiver shown).
