Chapter 1: Overview

SFP+ Slots

The switches have four SFP+ slots that support the following types of SFP 1000Mbps and SFP+ 10Gbps transceivers:

ˆ1000Base-SX/LX SFP transceivers

ˆSingle-port BiDi 1000Base-LX SFP transceivers

ˆ1000Base-ZX SFP transceivers

ˆ10Gbps, 10GBase-SR/LR fiber optic transceivers

ˆ10Gbps AT-SP10TW direct connect twinax cables with SFP+ transceiver-style connectors

You may use the transceivers to connect switches to other network devices over large distances, build high-speed backbone networks between network devices, or connect high-speed devices, such as servers, to your network.

The switches support a variety of short and long distance SFP and SFP+ modules. For a list of supported SFP modules, contact your Allied Telesis representative or visit our web site.

Note

SFP+ slots 51 and 52 are initially configured as stacking slots for the VCStack feature. If you intend to use the switch as a stand-alone unit, you must disable the VCStack feature before using the slots with standard SFP or SFP+ transceivers. See Chapter 5, “Configuring the Switch for Stand-alone Operations” on page 77 for instructions.
