Make sure that a compatible network adapter is installed in the node. Determine if installing the transceiver in the network
adapter requires a specific system operating temperature. For more information, see the HPE website (https://
www.hpe.com/support/xl225ngen10plus-thermal).

Review the following:
◦
Transceiver warnings and cautions
◦
Transceiver documentation for specific operational and cabling requirements
Procedure
1. Hold the transceiver by its sides and gently insert it into the network adapter port until it clicks into place.
Transceivers are keyed so that they can only be inserted in the correct orientation. If the transceiver does not fit easily into
the port, you might have positioned it incorrectly. Reverse the orientation of the transceiver and insert it again.
2. Remove the dust plug or protective cover from the transceiver.
3. Connect a compatible LAN segment cable to the transceiver.
4. Make sure that the NIC link LED on the port is solid green.
For more information on the port LED behavior, see the documentation that ships with the transceiver.
5. If needed, see the transceiver documentation for the model-specific fastening mechanism applicable to the transceiver.
The installation is complete.
