Installing a Fiber Uplink Module into the Switch

The fiber uplink module option permits you to enable 100Base-FX fiber
connections to the switch. A 2 port fiber module can be installed into the
modular slot on the left side of the switch (Figure 2-3).
To install the fiber module into the switch, do the following:
1. Turn off power to the switch.
2.
Remove the blank metal plate from the left side of the switch by
unscrewing the two mounting screws.
3. While maintaining a firm grip on the fiber connectors, insert the fiber
module card into the modular slot, with the module components
facing upwards. Insert the module into the slot uniformly. There are
no card guides. The connector on the fiber module mates with the
connector inside the switch. Press firmly until the module is properly
seated.
