Installation

Installing an Optional SFP Transceiver

The NXA-ENET8-2POE supports 1000BASE-SX, 1000BASE-LX, 1000BASE-LH, and 100BASE-FX SFP-
compatible transceivers.
SFP transceivers are not provided with the NXA-ENET8-2POE.
To install an SFP transceiver, do the following:
1.
Consider network and cabling requirements to select an appropriate SFP transceiver type.
2.
Insert the transceiver with the optical connector facing outward and the slot connector facing down. Note
that SFP transceivers are keyed so they can only be installed in one orientation.
3.
Slide the SFP transceiver into the slot until it clicks into place (FIG. 19).

SFP transceivers are hot-swappable. The switch does not need to be powered off
before installing or removing the transceiver. However, always first disconnect the
network cable before removing the transceiver.
The NXA-ENET8-2POE uses lasers to transmit signals over fiber optic cable. The
lasers are compliant with the requirements of a Class 1 Laser Product and are
inherently eye safe in normal operation. However, you should never look directly at a
transmit port when it is powered on.
