Installing Optional Mini-GBICs

Installing Optional Mini-GBICs

This section describes how to install Mini‐GBICs in any of the SFP port slots. It is recommended that the options be installed first in a new installation.

Warning: Do not use optical instruments to view laser output. The use of optical instruments to view laser output increases eye hazard.

Advertencia: No utilizar instrumentos opticos para ver el laser. El uso de instrumentos opticos para ver el laser incrementa el riesgo de perdida de la vision.

Warnhinweis: Benutzen sie keinesfalls optische Hilfmittel, um die Funktion des Lasers zu überprüfen, es könnte ihr Augenlicht gefährden.

Caution: Carefully follow the instructions in this manual to avoid damaging the Mini-GBIC and switch.

The Mini-GBIC and switch are sensitive to static discharges. Use an antistatic wrist strap and observe all static precautions during this procedure. Failure to do so could result in damage to the Mini-GBIC and switch. Always leave the Mini-GBIC in the antistatic bag or an equivalent antistatic container when not installed.

Precaución: Siga las instrucciones del manual para no dañar el Mini-GBIC ni del aparato, puesto que son muy sensible a las descargas de electricidad estática. Utilice la pulsera antiestática y tome todas las precauciones necesarias durante este procedimiento. Si no lo hace, podría dañar el Mini-GBIC o del aparato. Mientras no esté instalado, mantenga el Mini-GBIC en su bolsa antiestática o en cualquier otro recipiente antiestático.

Preparing to Install a Mini-GBIC

Before removing the Mini‐GBIC from the antistatic packaging, it is recommended that you use an antistatic wrist strap (not supplied) to prevent damage from static discharge. To use the wrist strap, refer to the instructions provided with your antistatic wrist strap.

1.Remove the Mini‐GBIC from its packaging.

2.If there is a protective dust cover (see 5 in Figure 3‐1 or Figure 3‐2) in the Mini‐GBIC connector, do not remove it at this time.
