Citrix Systems 9.3 setup guide To install a 1G SFP transceiver, Installing a 1G SFP transceiver

Citrix NetScaler Hardware Installation and Setup Guide

Caution: NetScaler appliances do not support 1G SFP transceivers from vendors other than Citrix Systems. Attempting to install third-party 1G SFP transceivers on your NetScaler appliance voids the warranty.

Insert 1G SFP transceivers into the 1G SFP ports on the front panel of the appliance. Frequent installation and removal of transceivers shortens their life span. Follow the removal procedure carefully to avoid damaging the 1G SFP transceiver or the appliance.

Caution: Do not install the transceivers with the cables attached. Doing so can damage the cable, the connector, or the optical interface of the transceiver.

To install a 1G SFP transceiver

1. Remove the 1G SFP transceiver carefully from its box.

Danger: Do not look directly into fiber optic transceivers or cables. They emit laser beams that can damage your eyes.

2.Align the 1G SFP transceiver to the front of the 1G SFP transceiver port on the front panel of the appliance, as shown in the following figure.

Note: The illustration in the following figures might not represent your actual appliance.
