Installation Notes

1000Base-SX Ports
The 1000Base-SX mini-GBIC ports operate in full-duplex mode and support multi-mode fiber cabling through LC
connectors. A 1000Base-SX mini-GBIC port must be connected to another 1000Base-SX port. Connection to a
1000Base-LX port or a 1000Base-LH port is not supported.
1000Base-LX Ports
The 1000Base-LX mini-GBIC ports operate in full-duplex mode and support both single-mode fiber (SMF) and
multi-mode fiber (MMF) cabling through LC connectors. A 1000Base-LX mini-GBIC port must be connected to
another 1000Base-LX port. Connection to a 1000Base-SX port or a 1000Base-LH port is not supported.
1000Base-LH Ports
The 1000Base-LH mini-GBIC ports operate in full-duplex mode and supports single-mode fiber (SMF) cabling
through LC connectors. A 1000Base-LH mini-GBIC port must be connected to another 1000Base-LH port.
Connection to a 1000Base-LX or 1000Base-SX mini-GBIC port is not supported.
Software Support for Mini-GBIC Ports
Hewlett-Packard offers and supports only mini-GBICs that include an HP label (product number J4858A, J4859A,
or J4860A) for use with the J4856A HP ProCurve 9300 Mini-GBIC Module and the J4857A HP ProCurve 9300
Mini-GBIC Redundant Management Module. Use of other brands of mini-GBICs or the use of HP mini-GBICs in
non-HP devices is not supported.
Removing and Installing XENPAK Optics
You can remove a XENPAK optic from a 10 Gigabit Ethernet module and replace it with a new one while the HP
device is powered on and running.
Before performing either of these tasks, have the following on hand:
An electrostatic discharge (ESD) wrist strap
WARNING: For safety reasons, the ESD wrist strap provided with your product contains a series limiting
resistor. If a replacement ESD strap is used, make certain that it contains a series limiting resistor with at least
1MOhm of resistance. Also, make certain the strap is not connected to any internal part of your ProCurve
chassis.
The protective covering that you removed from the port connectors when you initially installed the XENPAK
optic
The new XENPAK optic (if you are installing one)
A small flathead screwdriver
Removing a XENPAK Optic
To remove a XENPAK optic from a 10 Gigabit Ethernet module, do the following:
1. Put on the ESD wrist strap and attach the copper tape to a metal surface (such as an equipment rack) to act
as ground.
