4.5. SFP+ Slot Connection
INFO:
The SFP+ slots support the hot swap connection - the endpoint devices do not need to be powered
off before inserting or removing SFP+ modules or DAC cables.
4.5.1. Installation of SFP+ Modules
UBEX endpoint devices use SFP+ modules for the fiber optical connections.
The optical modules can be changed based on the current application of the
extender: it can be singlemode or multimode, or BiDi modules, up to 10 GbE
signal transmission.
INFO:
It is recommended to install 2x 10 GbE SFP+ modules per endpoint in the case of HDMI 2.0
(4K@60 Hz 4:4:4) signal transmission.
Inserting and Cabling of SFP+ Modules
Step 5. Put up on the handle bar.
Step 6. Connect the module to the to one of the SFP+ port slot.
Step 7. Connect the LC connectors to the SFP+ modules.

INFO: The SFP+ modules have a side that clips to the connector on the port of the switch, and is designed to
prevent the module from being inserted the wrong way into the port. Do NOT force the module into the port.
Removing SFP+ Modules
Step 1. Disconnect the LC connectors from the SFP+ module.
Step 2. Pull down on the handle bar.
Step 3. Gently slide out the SFP+ module from the slot.
4.5.2. Installation of DAC Cables
UBEX endpoint devices can be connected via DAC (Direct Attach Copper)
cables as well. The cable type must support 10 GbE signal transmission.

INFO: It is recommended to install 2x 10 GbE DAC cables in the case of
HDMI 2.0 (4K@60 Hz 4:4:4) signal transmission.
Inserting the DAC Cables
Step 1. Push the plug of the DAC cable to one of the SFP+ port slot of the local endpoint to stop.
Step 2. Push the other plug of the DAC cable to one of the SFP+ port slot of remote endpoint to stop.
Removing the DAC Cables
Pull the handle bar of the plug and gently slide out the cable from the slot.

4.6. Fiber Optical Cable Connections
The section describes how to connect the fiber optical cables between two SFP+ modules and between two
Neutrik opticalCON connectors in case of F and R-series endpoint devices.
4.6.1. Connection between SFP+ Modules
Affected models:
▪ UBEX-PRO20-HDMI-F100
▪ UBEX-PRO20-HDMI-F110
Connect multimode or singlemode
fiber optical cables with LC simplex
connectors to the SFP+ modules like in
the illustration on the right.

ATTENTION! Always check the
direction of the optical signal. The TX port of the module is higlighted with an arrow pointing outwards
the device, the RX port of the module is higlighted with another arrow pointing inwards the device.
4.6.2. Connection between BiDi (Bidirectional) SFP+ Modules
Affected models:
▪ UBEX-PRO20-HDMI-F100
▪ UBEX-PRO20-HDMI-F110
Connect multimode or singlemode
fiber optical cables with LC simplex
connectors to the BiDi SFP+ modules
like in the illustration on the right.
ATTENTION!
The Module A must be connected to the Module B. Always check the wavelength of the BiDi
modules. If the wavelengths are different, the cabling might be also different and the modules shall be
connected across.
