3.Hold the transceiver so that the connector will seat properly.

4.Carefully align the transceiver with the IOM port slot, as shown in Figure 3‐23.

5.Push the transceiver into the IOM port until it seats with the connector at the back of the slot.

Removing an XFP/SFP Module

Caution: Carefully follow the instructions in this manual to avoid damaging the XFP/SPF and IOM module.

The XFP/SPF and IOM module 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 XFP/SPF and IOM module. Always leave the XFP/SPF and IOM module in the antistatic bag or an equivalent antistatic container when not installed.

Precaución: Siga las instrucciones del manual para no dañar el XFP/SPF o la módulo IOM, 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 XFP/SPF y la módulo IOM. Mientras no esté instalado, mantenga el XFP/SPF y la módulo IOM en su bolsa antiestática o en cualquier otro recipiente antiestático.

To remove a transceiver from an IOM, refer back to Figure 3‐23 and proceed as follows:

1.Attach the antistatic wrist strap before removing the XFP/SFP module.

2.Remove any network cable attached to the connector on the XFP/SFP module. To remove a connector from the transceiver interface port, grasp the handle and carefully pull the connector out of the port. It may need to be loosened by gently moving it from side to side to release the latching keys.

3.Before storing or shipping the XFP/SFP module, place it into a static‐free container.

Connecting Fiber-Optic Cables

This section describes connecting 10‐ or 1‐Gigabit Ethernet fiber‐optic segments from the network or other devices to XFP or SFP port connectors (LC or MT‐RJ) on Matrix X4‐C IOMs.

Each fiber‐optic link consists of two fiber‐optic strands within the cable: Transmit (TX) and Receive (RX). The transmit strand from a module port connects to the receive port of a fiber‐optic

10‐/1‐Gigabit Ethernet device at the other end of the segment. The receive strand of the applicable LC or MT‐RJ port on the module connects to the transmit port of the fiber‐optic 10‐/1‐Gigabit Ethernet device (shown in Figure 3‐24).
