Installing Sfp+ Cables - Ruijie RG-S7808C Series Hardware Installation And Reference Manual

2. Use the fiber optical patch cord to connect the SFP/SFP+ module to the fiber optical network. Select the patch cord
with the connector corresponding to the port.
3. After the patch cord is connected, the Link/ACT Status LED is on. Otherwise, please check connection of the patch
cord.
Precaution
If the SFP/SFP+ module cannot be inserted to the end, do not push it forcefully. Please try the other end of the
module.
Do not touch the connecting finger on the module.
Do not squeeze, bend or fold the optical fiber, which may cause system performance degradation or data loss.
Do not remove the protective rubber plug from SFP+/SFP module before connecting fibers.
Do not insert the SFP+/SFP module with a fiber into a slot. Unplug the fiber before installing the module.

3.12.2 Installing SFP+ Cables

To avoid damaging components due to operation errors, read this section carefully before installing SFP+ cables.

2. After you connect the copper module to the Ethernet network through the connector, the Link/ACT status is on.
Otherwise, please check the connector.
Precaution
If the SFP+ copper module cannot be inserted to the end, do not push it forcefully. Please try the other end of the
module.
Do not touch the connecting finger on the module.
Do not squeeze, bend or fold the copper cable, which may cause system performance degradation or data loss.
After the cable is plugged, make sure that the bending radius is greater than 5 times of the cable diameter. Too small
bending radius may cause damage to the copper cable. For example. If the cable diameter is 4.9mm, the bending
radius should be 24.5mm at least, as shown in figure 3-35:
