information.
Installing or replacing a 10-Gigabit Ethernet module
NOTE
This section applies to the FastIron X Series compact switches only.
The 1-port and 2-port 10-Gigabit Ethernet modules are optional. You can order the X Series switch with a 10-Gigabit module installed at
the factory, or you can later upgrade your device:
•
IPv4 devices optionally support one or two 10-Gigabit Ethernet uplink ports for 10-Gigabit Small Form Factor Pluggable (XFP)
MSA-compliant optical transceivers.
•
IPv6 (FESX6) devices optionally support two 10-Gigabit Ethernet uplink ports for 10-Gigabit Small Form Factor Pluggable
(XFP) MSA-compliant optical transceivers.
NOTE
The IPv4 10-GbE modules are supported in IPv4 compact switches only. Likewise, the IPv6 10-GbE modules are supported in
IPv6 compact switches only.
This section provides the steps for installing, removing, and replacing the 10-Gigabit Ethernet module. You will need the following tools to
perform these procedures:
•
#2 Phillips-head screwdriver
