Installing the Optional Modules

The rear panel of the DWS-3026 includes two open slots that may be equipped with the DEM-
410X 1-port 10GE XFP uplink module, or a DEM-410CX 1-port 10GBASE-CX4 uplink
module, both sold separately.
Adding the DEM-410X optional module allows the switch to transmit data at a rate of ten
gigabits per second. The module port(s) are compliant with standard IEEE 802.3ae, support
full-duplex transmissions only and must be used with XFP MSA-compliant transceivers.
The DEM-410CX uses copper wire medium, not optic fiber and therefore has a transmit length
limit up to 1 meters. Compliant with the IEEE802.3ak standard, this module uses a 4-lane
copper connector for data transfer in full-duplex mode.
To install these modules in the DWS-3026 Switch, follow the steps listed in this section.
CAUTION:
At the back of the Switch to the left are the two slots for the optional modules. These slots
must be covered with the faceplate if the slots are not being used. To install a module in an
available slot, remove the faceplate by loosening the screws and pulling off the plate.
Before adding the optional module, make sure to disconnect all power
sources connected to the Switch. Failure to do so may result in an
electrical shock, which may cause damage, not only to the individual but
to the Switch as well.
