When VCStack is enabled on the switch, slots S1/27 and S2/28 are
reserved as stacking ports and may not be used for regular SFP or
SFP+ transceivers.
2. Remove the transceiver from its shipping container and store the
packaging material in a safe location.
3. If you are installing the transceiver in a top slot, position the transceiver
with the Allied Telesis label facing up. If you are installing the
