Installing The Sfp Transceiver - Planet GSD-802S User Manual

2.2.3 Installing the SFP transceiver

The sections describe how to insert an SFP transceiver into an SFP slot.
The SFP transceivers are hot-pluggable and hot-swappable. You can plug-in and out the transceiver to/from any SFP port
without having to power down the Gigabit Ethernet Switch. As the
Approved PLANET SFP Transceivers
PLANET Gigabit Ethernet Switch supports both single mode and multi mode SFP transceiver. The following list of
approved PLANET SFP transceivers is correct at the time of publication:
■MGB-SX SFP (1000Base-SX SFP transceiver )
■MGB-LX SFP (1000Base-LX SFP transceiver )
It recommends using PLANET SFP transceiver on the Gigabit Ethernet Switch. If you insert a SFP
transceiver that is not supported, the Gigabit Ethernet Switch will not recognize it.
Before connect the other switches, workstation or Media Converter.
1. Make sure both side of the SFP transfer are with the same media type, for example: 1000Base-SX to 1000Base-SX,
1000Bas-LX to 1000Base-LX.
2. Check the fiber-optic cable type match the SFP transfer model.
To connect to 1000Base-SX SFP transfer, use the multi-mode fiber cable- with one side must be male duplex
LC connector type.
To connect to 1000Base-LX SFP transfer, use the single-mode fiber cable-with one side must be male duplex
LC connector type.
Connect the fiber cable
1. Attach the duplex LC connector on the network cable into the SFP transceiver.
2. Connect the other end of the cable to a device – switches with SFP installed, fiber NIC on a workstation or a Media
Converter..
3. Check the LNK/ACT LED of the SFP slot on the front of the Gigabit Ethernet Switch. Ensure that the SFP transceiver
is operating correctly.
