Connecting Ethernet cables
Connecting a fiber port
WARNING!
Disconnected optical fibers or transceiver modules might emit invisible laser light. Do not stare into
beams or view directly with optical instruments when the firewall is operating.
CAUTION:
•
Never bend or curve a fiber excessively. The bend radius of a fiber must be not less than 100 mm
(3.94 in).
•
Keep the fiber end clean.
•
Make sure the fiber connector matches the transceiver module.
•
Before connecting a fiber, make sure the optical power at the receiving end does not exceed the
transceiver module's upper threshold of the optical receive power. If the optical power at the
receiving end exceeds the threshold, the transceiver module might be damaged.
The firewall supports the following transceiver modules:
•
GE SFP copper transceiver modules.
•
GE SFP transceiver modules.
•
10GE SFP+ transceiver modules.
•
40G QSFP+ transceiver modules.
•
100G QSFP+ transceiver modules.
For the transceiver module specifications, see port specifications in "Appendix A Chassis views and
technical specifications."
No transceiver module is provided with the firewall. As a best practice, use H3C transceiver
modules.
