Connecting to SFP Modules

This section describes how to connect to a fiber-optic SFP port. To connect to an RJ-45 Gigabit Ethernet port instead of a fiber-optic port, see the “Connecting to a Dual-Purpose Port” section on page B-46.

For instructions on how to install or remove an SFP module, see the “Installing and Removing SFP Modules” section on page B-42.

Follow these steps to connect a fiber-optic cable to an SFP module:

Warning Class 1 laser product. Statement 1008

Caution Do not remove the rubber plugs from the SFP module port or the rubber caps from the fiber-optic cable until you are ready to connect the cable. The plugs and caps protect the SFP module ports and cables from contamination and ambient light.

Before connecting to the SFP module, be sure that you understand the port and cabling stipulations in the “Preparing for Installation” section on page B-1. See Appendix C, “Cable and Connectors,” for information about the LC on the SFP module.
