Step 5: Installing an SFP GBIC Module
The following procedure describes how to install an SFP Gigabit Ethernet module in the switch's
Gigabit module bay. Standard SFP GBIC modules are sold separately from the Smart Switch. If an
SFP GBIC module is not being installed at this time, skip this procedure.
To install an SFP GBIC module:
1. Insert the SFP module into the SFP module bay.
2. Press firmly to ensure the module seats into the connector.
Step 6: Installing Device as Stand-alone or Stack Master
The device can operate as a stand-alone device, or part of a stack. By default the device is in stack
mode. Changing the mode is possible through the switch's web page once the device has been
booted and is operational.
The default port for connecting the devices in a stack is the Gigabit copper port. The fiber port can
also be used for stacking. Enabling the fiber port to be used for stacking, is through the switch's
web page once the device has been booted and is operational.
