Installation And Removal Of Small Form-Factor Pluggable Transceivers - Avaya 4826GTS Installing Manual

Installing the Avaya Ethernet Routing Switch
Required Cable
10/100Base TX Ports
100BaseFX Ports
Console Port
SFP Transceiver Ports
USB Port
Important:
In Autonegotiation mode, the switch automatically provides the proper MDI/MDI-X connection
on the RJ-45 ports; to eliminate the need for crossover cables. After you disable Autonegotiation
on 10/100 ports, MDI/MDI-x is also disabled.
Installation and removal of Small Form-factor Pluggable
transceivers
The following section describes how to install and remove Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP)
transceivers in the switch. For more information about SFP transceiver use and designation, see
Installing Transceivers and Optical Components on Avaya Ethernet Routing Switch 4800 Series,
NN47205-301 .
Important:
The switch will display the interface speed of the T1/E1 SFP as a 100 Mb/s connection even
though the interfaces is operating at the appropriate WAN speed. The system uses this value
for STP path cost and MLT utilization.
Avaya recommends that you enable egress traffic shaping on the port to 1.544 Mbps when
using the T1 SFP to guarantee appropriate Quality of Service and traffic prioritization.
Installing SFP transceivers
