2.2.3 Installing the SFP transceiver
The sections describe how to insert an SFP transceiver into an SFP slot.
The SFP transceivers are hot-pluggable and hot-swappable. You can plug-in and out the transceiver to/from
any SFP port without having to power down the Managed Switch. As the Figure 2-7 appears.

Approved PLANET SFP Transceivers
PLANET Managed Switch supports both Single mode and Multi-mode SFP transceiver. The following list of
approved PLANET SFP transceivers is correct at the time of publication:
Gigabit SFP Transceiver modules:
■
MGB-SX SFP (1000BASE-SX SFP transceiver / Multi-mode / 850nm / 220m~550m)
■
MGB-LX SFP (1000BASE-LX SFP transceiver / Single-mode / 1310nm / 10km)
■
MGB-L30 SFP (1000BASE-LX SFP transceiver / Single-mode / 1310nm / 30km)
■
MGB-L50 SFP (1000BASE-LX SFP transceiver / Single-mode / 1310nm / 50km)
■
MGB-LA10 SFP (1000BASE-LX SFP transceiver / WDM Single-mode / TX: 1310nm, RX: 1550nm/
10km)
■
MGB-LB10 SFP (1000BASE-LX SFP transceiver / WDM Single-mode / TX: 1550nm, RX: 1310nm /
10km)
It recommends using PLANET SFPs on the Managed Switch. If you insert a SFP
transceiver that is not supported, the Managed Switch will not recognize it.
Before connect the other Managed Switches, workstation or Media Converter.
1. Make sure both side of the SFP transceiver are with the same media type, for example: 1000Base-SX
to 1000Base-SX, 1000Bas-LX to 1000Base-LX.
2. Check the fiber-optic cable type match the SFP transceiver model.

To connect to 1000Base-SX SFP transceiver, use the Multi-mode fiber cable-with one side must be
male duplex LC connector type.

To connect to 1000Base-LX SFP transceiver, use the Single-mode fiber cable-with one side must
