Sfp+ Installation Notes (6100 Switch Series Only) - Aruba 6000 Series Installation And Getting Started Manual

When selecting a fiber SFP device, make sure it can function at a maximum temperature that is not less than the
recommended maximum operational temperature of the product. Use only an approved Laser Class 1 SFP
transceiver.
To ensure proper operation of your switch, use only the HPE Aruba SFP transceivers supported by your switch.
Use only supported HPE Aruba SFP transceivers. Non-HPE Aruba SFP transceivers are not supported.
Use of supported HPE Aruba products ensures that your network maintains optimal performance and
reliability. If you require additional transceivers, contact an HPE Aruba sales representative or an authorized
reseller. The following resources can help you to find transceiver support information for your switch
model:
See the Transceiver Guide.

minimum software versions to support the listed transceivers.
Hot Swapping SFP transceivers. Supported SFP transceivers that you can install in your Hewlett Packard
Enterprise OfficeConnect switch can be "hot swapped". "Hot swapping" means supported transceivers can
be removed and installed while the switch is receiving power. Disconnect the network cables from the SFP
transceivers before hot-swapping them.
When you replace an SFP transceiver with another of a different type, the switch may retain selected port-
specific configuration settings that were configured for the replaced unit. Be sure to validate or reconfigure
port settings as required.
SFP Connections to Devices with Fixed Speed/Duplex Configurations. When connecting a device to
your switch port that contains an SFP transceiver, the speed and duplex settings of the switch port and the
connected device must match. If the settings do not match, the device may not link properly—you may not
get a link. For some older network devices, including some older Hewlett Packard Enterprise devices, the
default speed/duplex settings may be predefined. (For example, a setting might be 1000 Mbps/Full Duplex.)
There may also be other settings that differ from the default configuration of your switch port. Because of
these default speed/duplex considerations, make sure that devices connected to your SFP ports are
properly configured. At a minimum, make sure the configurations match.
