Installing Optional Transceivers

Installing an SFP Transceiver

Review the following guidelines before installing an optional SFP transceiver in the switch:

ˆA transceiver can be hot-swapped. The switch can be powered on when you install a transceiver.

ˆInstall the transceiver before connecting its network cable.

ˆFiber optic transceivers are dust sensitive. When a fiber optic cable is not installed, or when you store the transceiver, always keep the plug in the optical bores. When you do remove the plug, keep it for future use.

ˆUnnecessary removal or insertion of a transceiver can lead to premature failure.

ˆThe SFP slots are paired with twisted pair ports. For operational information, refer to “Twisted Pair Ports” on page 14.

Warning

A transceiver can be damaged by static electricity. Be sure to observe all standard electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions, such as wearing an antistatic wrist strap, to avoid damaging the device.

To install an SFP transceiver in the AT-9000/28 Gigabit Ethernet ecoSwitch, perform the following procedure:

1.Remove the transceiver from its shipping container and store the packaging material in a safe location.

2.Position the transceiver with the label facing up.
