2. Insert the SFP fiber transceiver into the SFP slot. Normally, a bail is provided for every SFP transceiver.
Hold the bail and make insertion.
3. Until the SFP transceiver is seated securely in the slot, place the bail in lock position.
Connecting Fiber Cables
LC connectors are commonly equipped on most SFP transceiver modules. Identify TX and RX connector
before making cable connection. The following figure illustrates a connection example between two fiber
ports:
Make sure the RX-to-TX connection rule is followed on the both ends of the fiber cable.
Network Cables
Multimode (MMF) - 50/125m, 62.5/125m
Single mode (SMF) - 9/125m
Fiber Port Configuration
According to the speed negotiated by the copper port with the connected partner, the SFP+ fiber port uses the
same speed as the operating line rate for packet forwarding between copper port and fiber port automatically.
