Total system budget 11.5 dB Total optical system budget for the SX mini-GBIC is 11.5 dB. Extreme Networks recommends that 3 dB of the total budget be reserved for losses induced by cable splices/connectors and operating margin. While 8.5 dB remains available for cable induced attenuation, the 1000BASE-SX standard specifies supported distances of 275 meters over 62.5 micron multimode fiber and 550 meters over 50 micron...
CAUTION Mini-GBICs can emit invisible laser radiation. Avoid direct eye exposure to beam. Mini-GBICs are Class 1 laser devices, and they operate at 3.3 V. Use only Extreme Networks-certified mini-GBIC devices. If you see an amber blinking mini-GBIC port status LED after you install a mini-GBIC into a BlackDiamond 10K-series module, this means the mini-GBIC is not certified by Extreme Networks.
If you see an amber blinking mini-GBIC port status LED, the mini-GBIC installed in your switch or module is not approved, supported, or certified by Extreme Networks. To correct this problem, install an Extreme Networks-certified mini-GBIC. To remove a mini-GBIC similar to the one labeled “Module A” in Figure 1, gently press and hold down the black plastic tab at the bottom of the connector to release the mini-GBIC, and pull the mini-GBIC out of the SFP receptacle.
XENPAK Module Installation This section describes installing and removing the XENPAK module, a 10 Gbps optical transceiver. You can install or remove the XENPAK module from your Extreme Networks switch without powering off the system. The module is shown in Figure 2.
Page 17
2 Gripping both captive screws, gently pull the XENPAK Module out of the slot. 3 Place the dust covers back into the XENPAK Module connectors. 4 Place the XENPAK module immediately into an antistatic container to protect it from ESD damage and dust.

Extreme Networks recommends that you consult an electrical contractor for commercial building and wiring specifications. Temperature. Extreme Networks equipment generates a significant amount of heat. It is essential that you provide a temperature-controlled environment for both performance and safety. Install the equipment only in a temperature- and humidity-controlled indoor area that is free of airborne materials that can conduct electricity.

Use a rack grounding kit and a ground conductor that is carried back to earth or to another suitable building ground. All Extreme Networks switches are designed with mounting brackets that provide solid metal-to-metal connection to the rack. If you do not use equipment racks, you can attach wiring terminals directly to the mounting brackets for appropriate grounding.

• Assign a unique block of sequential numbers to the group of cables that run between each pair of wiring closets. • Assign a unique identification number to each distribution rack. • Identify all wiring closets by labeling the front panel of your Extreme Networks equipment and other hardware. • Keep accurate and current cable identification records.
Unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable can build up ESD charges when being pulled into a new installation. Before installing category 5 UTP cables, discharge ESD from the cable by plugging it into a port on a switch or any network device that is not powered on.

Site Preparation NOTE For power specifications for Extreme Networks products, see the Extreme Networks website at http://www.extremenetworks.com. • When connecting power to installed equipment, avoid connecting through an extension cord or power strip. • If your switch includes more than one power supply, connect each power supply to different, independent power sources.
• What is the maximum transition time that your installation will allow? NOTE Extreme Networks recommends that you use a UPS that provides online protection. Calculating Amperage Requirements To determine the size of UPS that you need, use the following procedure: 1 To find VA (Volt-Amps), locate the voltage and amperage requirements for each piece of equipment.
UPS Transition Time Transition time is the time that is necessary for the UPS to transfer from utility power to full-load battery power. For Extreme Networks products, a transition time of less than 20 milliseconds is required for optimum performance.

The BlackDiamond 10808 switch is shipped with a pre-installed fan tray. For your safety, due to the increased weight of the chassis after components are installed and to prevent damage to the equipment, Extreme Networks strongly recommends that you install the I/O modules after you mount the chassis in a rack.
Each indicator has two color-coded states, or modes: a good, white state, and a warning, red state. A smooth shipping procedure should leave all four indicators in good, white states. Figure 12 shows the tilt watch and shock watch indicators on both conditions. Extreme Networks BlackDiamond 10K-Series Switch Installation Guide...
