SFP+ and QSFP+ modules” on page 14, the documentation that comes with the
cables, and the optional network devices to which the cables have been
connected. For the locations of the connectors on the IBM Flex System chassis,
see the documentation that comes with the IBM Flex System chassis. Then,
continue with “Installing and removing SFP+ and QSFP+ modules and DACs.”
Installing and removing SFP+ and QSFP+ modules and DACs
The switch supports the 4 Gb, 8 Gb, and 10 Gb small-form-factor pluggable (SFP+)
module, the 1 Gb small-form-factor pluggable (SFP) module, and a QSFP+ module.
The SFP+, SFP, and QSFP+ modules are laser products that convert electrical
signals to optical signals.
For additional information about the location of the switch, the network interface
requirements, and expansion options, see the documentation for your IBM Flex
System chassis.
Notes:
1. The illustrations in this document might differ slightly from your hardware.
2. While the information in this section describes the 10 Gb small-form-factor
pluggable (SFP+) module, it also applies to the 1 Gb small-form-factor
pluggable (SFP) module and the 4 Gbps and 8 Gbps SFP+ module.
3. The switch also supports MSA-compliant copper direct-attach cables (DAC), up
to 5 m (16.5 ft.) in length.
Handling the SFP+ or QSFP+ module
Before you install the SFP+ or QSFP+ module, read the following information.
v
The module housing of the SFP+ has an integral guide key that is designed to
prevent you from inserting the module incorrectly.
v
Use minimal pressure when you insert the module into the port. Forcing the
module into the port can cause damage to the module or the module port.
v
You can insert or remove the module while the IBM Flex System chassis is
turned on.
v
You must first insert the module into the port before you can connect the cables.
v
You must remove the cable from the SFP+ module before you remove the SFP+
module from the switch.
