Installing Mini-GBIC Transceiver A typical mini-GBIC SFP transceiver is shown as follows: To install a fiber transceiver into the SFP slot, the steps are: 1. Insert the fiber transceiver into the mini-GBIC SFP port. Normally, a bail is provided for every SFP transceiver. Hold the bail and make insertion.
Connecting to the Network The rear bracket of the PCI adapter contains two fiber connectors. The TX connector is used for transmission and the RX is used for reception. When connecting to a device using fiber cable, make sure the TX connector of the adapter is connected to the RX connector of the device and RX connector is connected to the TX connector of the device.
Network Driver Installation After making the connection to the network, you must install the adapter network driver in order to connect the network adapter to your network operating system. The adapter driver media contains the latest versions of the network drivers available when the adapter is shipped from the factory.
No optical signal is detected. If you experience any problems, first make sure that the appropri- ate driver is loaded, the proper cable is connected to the connector, and the connected device complies with 1000BASE-X standard. Then recheck the LED.
