Installation and Safety Guide

Installing SFPs

Warning Do not look into the optical ports of SFP cables or transceivers. Invisible laser radiation may be emitted from disconnected fibres or connectors.

If you purchased optional SFPs for the AR770S, install them in the Ethernet SFP slots (leftmost).

The SFP transceiver must be inserted the right way in the slot. To install an SFP into the Ethernet SFP 0 slot (lower, leftmost), make sure the hinge on the front handle is at the top. For Ethernet SFP 1 (upper, leftmost), the handle hinge must be at the bottom. See the figure below.

Slide the transceiver into the SFP socket, and firmly press it until it engages. To remove it, first release it by gently pulling the release lever, and then pull it out of the socket. Never force a transceiver into or out of a socket.

Applying power to the router

Check that the supply voltage and the router’s rated voltage match. The router is fitted with a universal power supply that will function over the range 100 VAC to 240 VAC and 50 Hz to 60 Hz.

Warning The specific power supply requirements for a particular model are clearly displayed on the rear or underside of the router. If the supply is outside the accepted range for the router, the router may not operate or damage to the router may result.

Warning This equipment must be earthed.
