Do not insert the SFP+/SFP module with a fiber into a slot. Unplug the fiber before installing the module.
Installing SFP+ Cables
To avoid damaging components due to operation errors, read this section carefully before installing SFP+
cables.
1)
To install the SFP+ copper module, do as follows: You can install the SFP+ copper module with power on. Hold the
connector of a copper cable module with one hand and carry the cable to the front panel of the switch with the other.
Push the module gently into the SFP+ module slot until you hear a click, indicating the module is correctly installed.
Figure 3-34 Installing SFP+ Copper Module
2)
After you connect the copper module to the Ethernet network through the connector, the Link/ACT status is on.
Otherwise, please check the connector.
Precaution
If the SFP+ copper module cannot be inserted to the end, do not push it forcefully. Please try the other end of the
module.
Do not touch the connecting finger on the module.
Do not squeeze, bend or fold the copper cable, which may cause system performance degradation or data loss.
After the cable is plugged, make sure that the bending radius is greater than 5 times of the cable diameter.
Too small bending radius may cause damage to the copper cable. For example. If the cable diameter is
4.9mm, the bending radius should be 24.5mm at least, as shown in figure 3-35:
Figure 3-35 Bending Radius and Cable Diameter
Use an SFP+ cable to connect two SFP+ ports close to each other. Take the following steps to install the SFP+ module:
1)
Wear an anti-static wrist strap close to your skin and have it properly grounded.
