Installation guide

8. Using the handle on the power supply, hold the power supply level and guide it into the carrier rails
on each side of the power supply slot. Gently push the power supply all the way into the slot,
ensuring that it firmly engages with the connector.

9. When you are sure the power supply has properly engaged the connector, tighten the chassis
attachment screws to secure the power supply in the slot.
When the device is powered on, the power LED on the device should turn green to confirm that the
power supply is correctly installed and supplying power.
CAUTION
If you do not install a module or a power supply in a slot, you must keep the slot filler panel in
place. If you run the chassis with an uncovered slot, the system will overheat.
Installing an SFP+ transceiver
To monitor the transceivers, the show media command output shows the transceiver information for all
interfaces on the switch. Third-party transceivers are allowed. Brocade provides support for third-party
transceivers, but may require a Brocade transceiver be used for troubleshooting.
Support will not be provided if there is an issue with the third-party transceiver.
Complete the following steps to install an SFP+ transceiver.
1. Remove any protector plugs from the transceivers and the ports.
2. Making sure that the bail (wire handle) is in the unlocked position, place the SFP+ transceiver in the
correctly oriented position on the port.
NOTE
The QSFP+ 40 GbE LR4 optical transceiver is supported in ports 1 and 2 only. When the module is
inserted into a stack-unit/slot number/port number combination that is not 1/2/1 or 1/2/2, the following
error message displays: “QSFP LR-4 optics not supported on port port-number.”
3. Slide the SFP+ transceiver into the port until you feel it click into place; then close the bail.
NOTE
Each SFP+ transceiver has a 10-pad gold-plated edge connector on the bottom. The correct position
to insert an SFP+ transceiver in the upper row of ports is with the gold-plated edge down. The correct
position to insert an SFP+ transceiver in the lower row of ports is with the gold-plated edge up.
