Connecting an SFP Cable to an SFP Module Installed in an Uplink Port
Removing an SFP or SFP+ Module
To remove an SFP or SFP+ module, follow the procedures given below:
Step 1
Attach an ESD-preventive wrist strap to your wrist and to an earth ground surface.
Step 2
Disconnect the cable from the SFP module. For reattachment, note which cable connector plug is send
(TX) and which is receive (RX).
Step 3
Insert a dust plug into the optical ports of the SFP module to keep the optical interfaces clean.
Step 4
If the module has a bale-clasp latch, pull the bale out and down to eject the module. If you cannot use
your finger to open the latch, use a small, flat-blade screwdriver or other long, narrow instrument to open
it.
Step 5
Grasp the SFP module, and carefully remove it from the slot.
Step 6
Place the SFP module in an antistatic bag or other protective environment.
Connecting a Device to an Ethernet Port
Caution
Category 5e and Category 6 cables can store high levels of static electricity. Always ground the cables
to a suitable and safe earth ground before connecting them to the switch or other devices.
10/100/1000 Ethernet Port Connections
The 10/100/1000 Ethernet ports use RJ-45 connectors with Ethernet pinouts. The maximum cable length
is 328 feet (100 meters). The 100BASE-TX and 1000BASE-T traffic requires a Category 5, Category 5e,
or Category 6 UTP cable. The 10BASE-T traffic can use a Category 3 or Category 4 cable.
