Installing SFP and SFP+ Modules
All the SFP slots on the switch support both SFP modules and SFP+ modules.
See the
“SFP and SFP+ Module Slots” section on page 1-3
and the switch release notes on Cisco.com
for the list of supported SFP modules. Use only Cisco SFP modules on the switch.
For information about installing, removing, cabling, and troubleshooting SFP modules, see the module

“Connector and Cable Specifications.”
Installing an SFP or SFP+ Module
Warning
Class 1 laser product.
Statement 1008
•
Do not remove the dust plugs from the modules or the rubber caps from the fiber-optic cable until
you are ready to connect the cable. The plugs and caps protect the module ports and cables from
contamination and ambient light.
•
Removing and installing an SFP or SFP+ module can shorten its useful life. Do not remove and
insert any module more often than necessary.
•
To prevent ESD damage, follow your normal board and component handling procedures when
connecting cables to the switch and other devices.
Step 1
Attach an ESD-preventive wrist strap to your wrist and to a bare metal surface.
Step 2
Find the send (TX) and receive (RX) markings on the module top.
On some SFP or SFP+ modules, the send and receive (TX and RX) markings might be replaced by arrows
that show the direction of the connection, either send or receive (TX or RX).
Step 3
If the module has a bale-clasp latch, move it to the open, unlocked position.
Step 4
Align the module in front of the slot opening, and push until you feel the connector snap into place.
Step 5
If the module has a bale-clasp latch, close it.
Step 6
For fiber-optic SFP or SFP+ modules, remove the dust plugs and save.
Step 7
Connect the SFP cables.
