The MFB series single mode SFP
transceivers provide the optical power
budget from 15 dB to 30dB. When shorter
distance of single-mode fiber cables is
used, you might need to insert an in-
line optical attenuator in the link to avoid
overloading the transceiver:

4. Installing Sfp Modules
4.1 Installing The Sfp Transceiver
The sections describe how to insert an SFP transceiver
into an SFP slot.
The SFP transceivers are hot-pluggable and hot-
swappable. You can plug-in and out the transceiver to/
from any SFP port without having to power down the
Switch/Media Converter. As the Figure -1 appears.
