• If the SFP has a plug, remove it before sliding the connector into the CNC port. Retain the plug.
• If using different SFPs in combination, locate the appropriate SFP pertaining to each target CNC
port, and note the port number (0 — 3) into which each SFP will install.
• See the “Changing host-interface settings” topic in the Storage Management Guide for information
about configuring CNC ports for use with qualified FC or iSCSI SFP options. Also see the
show

and
set host-port-mode
CLI commands within the CLI Reference Guide.
2.
Install the SFP and connect the host interface cable per
below:
a.
Flip the SFP actuator and revolve it downwards.
b.
Insert the SFP into the CNC port and ensure that it locks securely into place.
c.
Align the fibre-optic interface cable with the duplex jack at the end of installed SFP.

3.
Connect the fibre-optic interface cable to the duplex jack at the end of the SFP connector.
4.
Repeat
through
for each SFP requiring installation into a CNC port.
Verifying component operation
View the Link Status/Link Activity LED on the controller module face plate. A blinking LED indicates that no
link is detected. Also check the link status and link activity LEDs on the host.
Replacing a 10GbE SFP+ transceiver
This section provides steps for removing and replacing a small form-factor pluggable plus (SFP+
transceiver) connector used in an Internet SCSI (iSCSI) controller host port. SFP+ connectors are similar in
appearance to SFP connectors. These transceivers enable 10GbE equipment designs with high port
density, based on electrical and mechanical enhancements to SFP specifications developed by the Small
Form Factor (SFF) Committee.
Removing and replacing an SFP+ consists of the same basic steps described for removing and replacing
an SFP in the preceding section. This procedure refers to the preceding
instructions. When reviewing the procedure as it pertains to the 10Gb iSCSI host ports, note
that your particular cables may be either copper or fibre-optic for the SFP+, depending upon how your
system was initially configured, and the SFP+ option used.
