Installing an SFP Transceiver
The AT-GS950/48 Gigabit Ethernet Smart switch has four SFP combo
ports. Perform this procedure before “Cabling and Powering On the
Switch” on page 44.
To install an SFP transceiver, perform the following procedure:
Note
The transceiver can be hot-swapped; you do not need to power off
the switch to install a transceiver. However, always remove the
cables before removing the transceiver.
Note
You must install the transceiver before you connect cables to it.
1. Remove the transceiver from its shipping container and store the
packaging material in a safe location.
2. Remove the dust plug from the SFP slot, as shown in Figure 11.
