2.2.3 Installing the SFP transceiver

The sections describe how to insert an SFP transceiver into an SFP slot.

The SFP transceivers are hot-pluggable and hot-swappable. You can plug-in and out the transceiver to/from any SFP port

without having to power down the WGS3 Layer 3 Switch. As the Figure 2-7 appears.

Figure 2-7 Plug-in the SFP transceiver

Approved PLANET SFP Transceivers

PLANET WGS3 Layer 3 Switch supports both Single mode and Multi-mode SFP transceiver. The following list of approved

PLANET SFP transceivers is correct at the time of publication:

MGB-SX SFP (1000BASE-SX SFP transceiver )

MGB-LX SFP (1000BASE-LX SFP transceiver )

It recommends using PLANET SFPs on the Switch. If you insert a SFP transceiver that is not

supported, the Switch will not recognize it.

Before connect the other WGS3 Layer 3 Switches, workstation or Media Converter.

1. Make sure both side of the SFP transceiver are with the same media type, for example: 1000Base-SX to 1000Base-SX,

1000Bas-LX to 1000Base-LX.

2. Check the fiber-optic cable type match the SFP transceiver model.
