SFP Port A – Install SFPs in this slot. These slots conform to the SFP MSA (INF‐8074i more information
later in this manual) as well as non‐MSA pinouts. They can be both fixed bi‐directional ports and support dual
TX or dual RX SFPs. Any standard MSA or non‐MSA complaint SFP can be used in these slots including but not
limited to optical modules with data rates in the range of 155Mbps to 12.5 Gbps, Ethernet copper modules,
video copper modules, copper quadrax SFP to SFP cables, etc.
Each channel is independent and will accept any format and any user supplied SFP module that is appropriate
for the user’s equipment. Above 500 Mbps, ultra‐low jitter SFP’s are recommended (40 psec.) as well as ITU‐T
G.652.D/IEC 60793‐2‐50.B1.3 compliant fiber optic cable.
SFP Port B – A second SFP slot functionally equivalent to SFP Port A. Any SFP installed in this slot will be
directly electrically connected to the SFP in Port A. Any signals presented in the Receive of Port A will exit on
the Transmit of Port B and vice versa.
TX Fault
RX Detect – There is one pair of these LED indicators associated with each SFP slot on the
unit. They correspond to the slot directly below. Color indications can be interpreted using the following table:

Power – LED which indicates the presence of DC power in the unit. Note that on start‐up, the unit will
perform a quick lamp check, flashing all LEDs
