SFP modules
The 2-slot 100FX/Gigabit SFP are designed for Fast or Gigabit SFP modules that support network
speeds of 100Mbps or 1000Mbps.
Installing SFP Modules
To connect the fiber transceiver and LC cable, use the following guidelines:
1.
Remove the dust plug from the fiber optic slot chosen for the SFP transceiver.
Figure 2.6 Removing the Dust Plug from an SFP Slot
Note: Do not remove the dust plug from the SFP slot if you are not installing the transceiver at
this time. The dust plug protects hardware from dust contamination.
2.
Position the SFP transceiver with the handle on top, see the following figure.
3.
Locate the triangular marking in the slot and align it with the bottom of the transceiver.
4.
Insert the SFP transceiver into the slot until it clicks into place.
5.
Make sure the module is seated correctly before sliding the module into the slot. A click
sounds when it is locked in place.
