Chapter 2 Switch Installation

Installing SFP Modules

Removing an X2 Transceiver Module or Converter Module

To remove an X2 transceiver module or a converter module, follow these steps:

Step 1 Attach an ESD-preventive wrist strap to your wrist and to a bare metal surface.

Caution Do not insert or remove an X2 transceiver module with fiber-optic cables attached. An X2 module interface might go into an error-disabled state when an X2 transceiver module is inserted or removed with fiber-optic cables connected to the module. If the interface is in an error-disabled state, you can re-enable the interface by using the shutdown and no shutdown interface configuration commands.

Step 2 For X2 transceiver modules, disconnect the cables from the module. For fiber-optic modules, install the optical bore dust plugs.

Caution Do not remove the converter module with SFP modules or cables installed. Always remove any cables and modules before removing the converter module from the slot.

Step 3 For converter modules, disconnect the cables from the SFP module. Remove the SFP modules from the converter module.

Step 4 Carefully pull on the X2 module sleeve, or pinch the tabs on the converter module to disengage it from the slot. Grasp the edges of the module, and carefully slide it out of the slot.

Step 5 Reinstall a replacement module or an EMC plug in the 10-Gigabit Ethernet slot.

Step 6 Place the module in an antistatic bag or other protective environment.

Installing SFP Modules

This section describes how to install and remove SFP modules in the 3560E-12SD switch slots and in the Cisco TwinGig Converter Module slots. For 24- and 48-port switches and Catalyst 3560E-12D switches, you must have a converter module installed in a 10-Gigabit Ethernet slot to use SFP modules.

See the “SFP Modules” section on page 1-5and the switch release notes on Cisco.com for the list of SFP modules that the switch supports. Use only Cisco SFP modules on the switch. Each Cisco module has an internal serial EEPROM that is encoded with security information. This encoding provides a way for Cisco to identify and validate that the module meets the requirements for the switch.

For more information about installing, removing, cabling, and troubleshooting SFP modules, see the module documentation that shipped with your device. For module cable specifications, see Appendix B, “Connector and Cable Specifications.”

3750-E, 3560-E specifications

Cisco Systems RPS (Redundant Power System) 2300, along with the 3750-E and 3560-E series switches, represents a significant technological advancement in enterprise networking. These devices are designed to enhance network reliability, scalability, and efficiency, making them integral components in modern enterprise infrastructures.

The Cisco RPS 2300 is designed to provide redundant power to specified Cisco switches, ensuring continuous operation during power disruptions. This system can support up to six devices, enhancing power reliability and reducing downtime. The modularity of the RPS 2300 contributes to its flexibility, allowing enterprises to customize their power solutions to suit their networking needs. It features dual power input, which provides an additional layer of failover capability, ensuring that even in the event of a primary power failure, the backup power system can take over seamlessly.

On the other hand, the Cisco 3750-E series switches are enterprise-class devices that offer a rich feature set to support advanced network functions. These switches come with Cisco’s StackWise technology, enabling users to stack up to nine switches in a single logical unit. This increases port density and simplifies network management. The 3750-E also supports Power over Ethernet (PoE), allowing the delivery of power directly to devices like IP phones and access points through the networking cables. The switch is equipped with high-performance Layer 3 routing capabilities, providing enhanced IP routing options for enterprise networks.

The Cisco 3560-E series switches share many of the advanced features found in the 3750-E models but focus more on providing comprehensive Layer 2 and Layer 3 capabilities in a compact design. The 3560-E series supports Cisco’s advanced security features, such as dynamic VLAN assignment and security group access control lists (ACLs). Additionally, these switches support IPv6, preparing enterprise networks for future growth and addressing requirements.

Both the 3750-E and 3560-E are equipped with energy-efficient technologies, including intelligent power management and support for Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE), helping organizations reduce their environmental footprint and operating costs. The integration of Cisco’s robust IOS software ensures that these devices are equipped with the latest features, ensuring strong performance, security, and scalability.

In summary, Cisco's RPS 2300, 3750-E, and 3560-E series exemplify the company's commitment to delivering cutting-edge networking solutions that meet the demands of modern enterprises, focusing on reliability, advanced features, and energy efficiency.
