To install an SFP fiber transceiver into SFP slot, the steps are:
1. Turn off the power to the switch.
2. Insert the SFP fiber transceiver into the SFP slot. Normally, a bail is provided for every SFP transceiver.
Hold the bail and make insertion.
3. Until the SFP transceiver is seated securely in the slot, place the bail in lock position.
Connecting Fiber Cables
LC connectors are commonly equipped on most SFP transceiver modules. Identify TX and RX connector
before making cable connection. Plug in the cables as shown below. Make sure RX-to-TX connection rule is
followed between two ends of the connected cable.
