Connecting devices
The

you are going to use, and position and insert each SFP
transceiver as required (right side up in the top row of
ports and upside down in the bottom row of ports).
Push the SFP until it is firmly seated.
b. Close the latching bale. Repeat for the other ports.

ends (if there are any), and position the cable connector so
that it is oriented correctly.
b. Insert the cable connector into the SFP until it is firmly seated
and the latching mechanism clicks.
c. The
Device Connection
screen shows missing, valid, and
invalid connections as you cable the switch. Note that it can
take up to 15 seconds for the connection to display as a valid
connection. Verify that the connections are all green and click
