Installing an XFP Transceiver
Figure 3-5 Installing an XFP Transceiver
The XFP slots support the following XFP transceivers:
• 10GBASE-SR
• 10GBASE-LR
• 10GBASE-ER
To install an XFP transceiver, do the following:
1. Consider network and cabling requirements to select an appropriate
XFP transceiver type.
2. Insert the transceiver with the connector facing outward and the slot
connector facing down. Note that XFP transceivers are keyed so they
can only be installed in one orientation.
3. Slide the XFP transceiver into the slot until it snaps into place.
Note:
XFP transceivers are hot-swappable. The switch does not need to
be powered off before installing or removing a transceiver.
However, always first disconnect the network cable before
removing a transceiver.
Note:
XFP transceivers are not provided in the switch package.
