top row of ports, SFPs will be oriented as shown in Figure 14 on page 30 and
Figure 15 on page 30. To install SFPs in the bottom row of ports, orient the
SFPs with the plastic tab or wire bale on the top.
Installing fiber-optic cables
To connect fiber-optic cables to SFP modules, follow the steps below.
Note: Fiber-optic cable connectors are keyed to ensure that they are inserted in
the SFPs correctly. If a cable does not install easily, ensure that it is oriented
and aligned correctly, and that the SFP or cable end is not blocked by a
protective cap or other object.
1. Remove the protective caps from the end of the fiber-optic cable. See
Figure 17. Remove the protective cap (if any) from the SFP. Save the caps for
future use.
