INSTALLING THE SWITCH

Installing a GBIC Transceiver

The two slots on the switch front panel are for installing optional GBIC transceivers. The GBIC slots support the following transceivers:

1000BASE-SX

1000BASE-LX

The 1000BASE-SX GBIC transceivers provide one short-wavelength (850 nm) Gigabit port that can be used for a high-speed backbone or server connection. This port can be connected to a site up to 550 m (1805 ft) away with multimode fiber cable.

The 1000BASE-LX GBIC transceivers provide one long-wavelength (1300 nm) Gigabit port that can be used for a high-speed backbone or server connection. This port can be connected to a site up to 5 km (16404 ft) away with single-mode fiber cable.

Caution: Install only 5 V GBIC transceivers into the GBIC slots.

You can install a GBIC transceiver as described below:

1.Insert the tranceiver with the SC connector facing out toward you. Note that the transceiver is keyed so that it can only be installed in one orientation.

2.Press in on the transceiver’s side tabs, and gently slide it into the GBIC interface slot until it clicks into place.

Note: GBIC transceivers are hot-swappable. You do not need to power off the switch before installing or removing a transceiver.
