Connecting SFPs
Use these steps to connect SFPs (Small Form Factor Pluggable) to the Fibre
Channel ports as required. Purchase SFPs separately. For purchasing information,
refer to
Table 3 in the section Optional Hardware Kits in Chapter 1 , on page 30.
Note: The ports are color-coded to indicate which ones can be used in the same
trunking groups: four ports marked with black solid ovals alternate with four ports
marked with oval outlines.
Note: The ports and cables used in trunking groups must meet specific requirements.
Caution: Do not route cables in front of the exhaust vent (located at the top of
the port side of the chassis).
1. Position one of the SFP transceivers so that the key is oriented correctly to the
port, and insert the transceiver into the port until it is firmly seated and the
latching mechanism clicks. See
Figure 21 .
