Connect cables to the SFP transceivers and their corresponding devices, and then apply power
to the devices. LC-type duplex fiber optic cable connectors are designed for use with the SFP
transceivers. Duplex cable connectors are keyed to ensure proper orientation.
GL_Ports self configure as FL_Ports when connected to loop of public devices or F_Ports
when connected to a single device. G_Ports self configure as F_Ports when connected to
single public devices.

WARNING:
This product is supplied with a 3-wire power cable and plug. Use this power
cable in conjunction with a properly grounded outlet to avoid electrical shock. An electrical
outlet that is incorrectly wired could place hazardous voltage on metal parts of the switch
chassis.
A different power cable than the one supplied may be required in some countries.
For 125 Volt electrical service, the cable must be rated at 10 Amps and be approved
by UL and CSA.
For 250 Volt electrical service, the cable must be rated at 10 Amps, meet the
requirements of H05VV-F, and be approved by VDE, SEMKO, and DEMKO.

Input Power LED and Heartbeat LED remain illuminated.
to begin:
— The Input Power LED remains illuminated indicating that the switch logic circuitry is
receiving DC voltage. If not, contact your authorized maintenance provider.
— The Heartbeat LED indicates the results of the POST. The POST tests the condition of
firmware, memories, data-paths, and switch logic circuitry. If the Heartbeat LED
blinks steadily about once per second, the POST was successful, and you can continue
with the installation process. Any other blink pattern indicates that an error has
occurred. See
