SFP and SFP+ Tranceiver Module Ports

Use only Cisco SFP transceiver modules with the switch. For a list of supported modules, see the

Catalyst 3850 Switch Hardware Installation Guide. For detailed instructions on installing, removing,

and connecting to SFP transceiver modules, see the SFP and SFP+ transceiver modules documentation.

Step 1

Hold the SFP tranceiver module on the sides, and

insert it into the SPF module slot on the switch until

you feel the connector snap into place.

Note

Step 2

Connect an appropriate cable to the module port.

Step 3

Connect the other cable end to the other device.

Verify Port Connectivity

After you connect a device to the switch port, the port LED turns amber for about 30 seconds while the

switch establishes a link. The LED turns green when the switch and the attached device have a link. If the

LED is off, the device might not be turned on, there might be a cable problem, or there might be a

problem with the adapter installed in the device.

OL-26778-02

Depending on the model of the switch you

are working with, the four SFP module slots

can be all 1-Gigabit SFP module slots or all

10-Gigabit SFP+ module slots. They can

also be a combination of a pair of SFP

modules slots on the left and a pair of SFP+

module slots on the right. SFP+ module slots

support both SFP and SFP+ modules.
