If your device does not have an installed power supply, install one or two power supplies using the
instructions in
Installing Optional Components
After the device is secured to the rack, install optional components.
The SLX 9740 switch routers support the use of pluggable transceivers and cables in the QSFP+ and
QSFP28 formats.
For a list of the optical components supported with SLX 9740 switch routers, see Extreme Hardware/
Software Compatibility and Recommendation Matrices.
Pluggable Transceiver Modules
Extreme Networks offers several optical transceiver modules for transmitting and receiving data over
optical fiber rather than through electrical wires. Install these modules using the instructions in Extreme
Networks Pluggable Transceivers Installation Guide.
Optical Cables
Direct-attach copper and fiber cables provide connections between unpopulated QSFP+ and QSFP28
ports.
To install optical cables, refer to the instructions in Extreme Networks Pluggable Transceivers Installation
Guide.
Breakout cables
The copper breakout cables are terminated with optical connectors and are available in 1m, 3m, 5m, or
greater lengths. No additional connectors or cabling are required when using the copper breakout.
When using the fiber breakout cables, additional 10Gb optics are required.
For SLX 9740 switch routers, interfaces 0/49 to 0/56 support up to 8 10GbE or up to 8 25GbE ports in
breakout mode by using the following optics:
For 4x 10GbE breakout cables:
•
4 SFP+ 40GbE-to-10GbE copper breakout cables in 1m, 3m, or 5m or greater lengths
•
40G-QSFP-SR4-INT (with fiber breakout cables and additional 10GbE optics)
•
40G-QSFP-ESR4 (with fiber breakout cables and additional 10GbE optics)
For 4x 25GbE breakout cables:
•
100G-QSFP-4SFP-P-XXX
