    Accessing XFP Ports Dell Force10 offers various types of XFP transceivers. For details, see: http://www.force10networks.com/products/specifications.asp All ports in the S2410P use XFP transceivers except the dedicated Ethernet Management port, and the S2410CP includes four XFP ports.
  • Page 26 CAUTION: Before connecting a transceiver to a source, check the receive power of the transceiver with an optical power meter. Generally, Dell Force10 specified optics are not to be subjected to receive power higher than that stipulated by the optic specification. If the optic is exposed to optical power in excess of the specification, there is a high likelihood that it will be damaged.
