Installing SFP/SFP+ Devices
The C4110 lets you install SFP/SFP+ devices of choice to make a fiber connection. The C4110 has two
SFP/SFP+ ports. The C4110 has two ports. The locations of PORT1 and PORT 2 (SFP/SFP+) are shown
below.
Note
: The S4100 is an “any rate to same rate” device, meaning the two SFPs used must both
support the same data rate. However, two SFPs can support different types of fiber and different
transmission distances.
SFP/SFP+ Optical
Transceivers
Transition Networks SFP and SFP+ devices are small form factor, hot-pluggable transceivers which allow
for a single piece of network equipment to be connected to a multitude of interfaces, protocols, and
transmission media via the SFP/SFP+ port. All of Transition’s SFPs and SFP+ devices are compliant with
the Multi-Sourcing Agreement (MSA) ensuring interoperability with all other MSA compliant networking
devices.
The SFP/SFP+ module used defines the fiber length and type that can be supported. Identical SFP/SFP+
modules must be used at each end of the fiber link for each port on this device.
Figure 3: Port Locations and SFP/SFP+ Installation
To install an SFP/SFP+ device in the C4110:
1. Position the SFP/SFP+ device at either installation slot, with the label facing up.
2. Carefully slide the SFP/SFP+ device into the slot, aligning it with the internal installation guides.
3. Ensure that the SFP/SFP+ device is firmly seated against the internal mating connector.
4. Connect the fiber cable to the fiber port connector of the SFP/SFP+ device.
