Installing the Switch
Installation Procedure
2-13
Removing the SFP+ transceivers
Depending on when you purchased your Hewlett Packard Enterprise SFP+ transceiver, it may have either of
three different release mechanisms: a plastic tab on the bottom of the SFP+ transceiver, a plastic collar around
the SFP+ transceiver, or a wire bail.
To remove the SFP+ transceivers that have the plastic tab or plastic collar, push the tab or collar toward the
switch until you see the SFP+ transceiver release from the switch (you can see it move outward slightly), and
then pull it from the slot.
To remove the SFP+ transceivers that have the wire bail, lower the bail until it is approximately horizontal, and
then using the bail, pull the SFP+ transceiver from the slot.
Replace the protective plastic cover on the SFP+ transceiver.
Connecting Cables to SFP+ transceivers
If you have any SFP transceivers installed in the switch, the type of network connections you will need to use
depends on the type of SFP transceivers you have installed. See the table on
page 1-4 and “ Switch
Specifications ” on page A-1, for the SFP+ cabling information.
For SFP+ ports, and in general for all the switch ports, when a network cable from an active network device
is connected to the port, the port Link LED for that port should go on. If the port Link LED does not go on when
the network cable is connected to the port, see “
Diagnosing with the LEDs ” on page 4-1.
NOTE:
You should disconnect the network cable from the SFP+ transceiver before removing it from the switch.
