Installing the SAN Switch 2/8

Connecting a Cable to an SFP Module

Use these steps to connect the SFPs and cables to SAN Switch 2/8 ports as required.

Note: The ports and cables used in trunking groups must meet specific requirements. For a list of these requirements, refer to the hp StorageWorks ISL Trunking V3.0.x/V4.0.x User Guide.

1.Remove the shipping plugs from the appropriate ports.

2.Position the SFP so that the key (the tab near the cable-end of the SFP) is on top.

3.Insert the SFP into the port until it is firmly seated and the latching mechanism clicks.

Note: The SFP is keyed so that it can only be inserted with the correct orientation into the port. If the SFP does not slide in easily, check the orientation.
