Installing and Removing SFP Modules
Caution
Do not remove the dust plugs from the fiber-optic 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.
Step 6
Insert the cable connector into the SFP module:
•
For fiber-optic SFP modules, insert the LC or MT-RJ cable connector into the
SFP module.
•
For copper SFP modules, insert the RJ-45 cable connector into the SFP
module.
Note
When connecting to 1000BASE-T SFP modules, be sure to use a twisted
four-pair, Category 5 cable.
