This section describes how to connect to SFP modules.
Connect Fiber Optic SFP Modules
Caution Do not remove the rubber plugs from the SFP module port or from the fiber optic cable until you are ready
to connect the cable. The plugs and caps protect the SFP module ports and cables from contamination and
ambient light.
Step 1
Remove the rubber plugs from the module port and fiber optic cable, and store them for future use.
Step 2 Insert one end of the fiber optic cable into the SFP module port.
Step 3
Insert the other end into a fiber optic connector at a target device.
Step 4 Observe the port's LED status.
The LED turns green when the device and the target device establish a link.
If the LED is off, check whether the target device is turned on, or whether there is any failure in the target device.
Step 5
If necessary, reconfigure and restart the device or target device.
