To insert a mini-GBIC connector:
1 Holding the mini-GBIC by its sides, insert the mini-GBIC into the SFP receptacle on the switch.
2 Push the mini-GBIC into the SFP receptacle until you hear an audible click, indicating the mini-GBIC
is securely seated in the SFP receptacle. If the mini-GBIC has a handle, push up on the handle to

Connecting Equipment to the Console Port

Connection to the console port is used for direct local management. The switch console port settings are
set as follows:
• Baud rate—9600
• Data bits—8
• Stop bit—1
• Parity—None
• Flow control—None
NOTE
If you set the switch console port flow control to XON/XOFF rather than None, you will be unable to
access the switch. Do not set the switch console port flow control to XON/XOFF.
The terminal connected to the console port on the switch must be configured with the same settings.
This procedure is described in the documentation supplied with the terminal.
Appropriate cables are available from your local supplier. To make your own cables, pinouts for a DB-9
male console connector are described in Table 10.
