Installing an SP10TW Direct Connect Twinax Cable in the SFP+ Port
The SFP+ port in the GS970EMX/10 switch supports the SP10TW1 and
SP10TW3 direct connect twinax cables. The cables offer an economical
way to add 10Gbps connections over short distances. They have SFP+
transceivers on both ends and come in lengths of one and three meters.
Note
The switch does not support the seven meter SP10TW7 cable.
To install an SP10TW cable, perform the following procedure:
1. Remove the transceiver from its shipping container and store the
packaging material in a safe location.
2. Position the transceiver with the Allied Telesis label facing up. Refer to
Figure 47.
