SFP/SFP+
Introduction
The FRM220-TM-10GMux accepts any 1.25G SFP (CH1
~
CH7) and
10G SFP+ (Line) unit that comply with MSA (Multi-Source Agreement)
standard. Follow all ESD precautions when handling the card and
pluggable modules. Fiber optic components and cables are very sensitive
to dirt, dust and mishandling, especially in high-speed networks. Dirty or
mistreated fiber may cause errors and an unwanted degradation of
signal quality. Remove the dust caps on SFP or SFP+ only when ready to
plug in optical cables.
When selecting SFP or SFP+ optical modules, make sure the
modules are able to support the required data rates.
Installation
SFP or SFP+ modules supplied by CTC Union are of the Bale Clasp
type. The bale clasp pluggable module has a bale clasp that secures the
module into the SFP or SFP+ cage.
Inserting a Bale Clasp SFP/SFP+ Module into the cage
Step 1. Close the bale clasp upward before inserting the pluggable
module.
Step 2. Line up the SFP/SFP+ module with the port, and slide it
into the cage.
Removing a Bale Clasp SFP/SFP+ Module
Step 1. Open the bale clasp on the SFP/SFP+ module. Press the
clasp downward with your index finger.
Step 2. Grasp the SFP/SFP+ module between your thumb and
index finger and carefully remove it from the SFP/SFP+ cage.

WARNING:
Fiber optic equipment may emit laser or infrared light
that can injure your eyes. Never look into an optical fiber or connector
port. Always assume that fiber optic cables are connected to a laser
light source.
