Connecting to 100BASE-FX Ports

Follow these steps to connect a fiber-optic cable to an Cisco IEM-3000-8FM expansion module:

Warning Class 1 laser product. Statement 1008

Caution Do not remove the rubber plugs from the SFF 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 SFF module ports and cables from contamination and ambient light.

Before connecting to the SFF module, be sure that you understand the port and cabling stipulations in the “Preparing for Installation” section on page B-1. See the “Cable and Adapter Specifications” section on page C-4for information about the LC connector on the SFP module.

Step 1 Remove the rubber plugs from the module port and fiber-optic cable, and store them for future use. Step 2 Insert one end of the fiber-optic cable into the SFP module port. See Figure B-35.

Step 3 Insert the other cable end into a fiber-optic receptacle on a target device.

Step 4 Observe the port status LED.

The LED turns green when the switch and the target device have an established link.

The LED turns amber while the STP discovers the network topology and searches for loops. This process takes about 30 seconds, and then the port LED turns green.
