Grounding the Switch
The SM24DP4XA back panel provides the Ground Screw as shown below.
ATTENTION
: This case must be earth grounded. No DC input may be earth grounded.
Use Isolated Power Supply.
Installing SFP Modules
You can install or remove a mini-GBIC SFP/SFP+ module from an SFP/SFP+ port without having to power off the
switch.
Note
: The SFP ports should use UL Listed Optional Transceiver product, Rated 3.3Vdc, Laser Class 1. See the SFP
manual for important cautions, warnings, and instructions. See the Transition Networks
range of Optical Devices.
1.
Verify the SFP orientation (label up or down) and insert the SFP module into the SFP port. The SFP is inserted
with the label up on the four 10G SFP+ ports. For the 24 1G SFP ports, the SFP is inserted with the label up on
the top row of ports and with the label down on the bottom row of ports.
2.
Press firmly to ensure that the module seats into the connector.
Note
: Use an attenuator if the lengths will be less than half the maximum range of your particular optics.
