S25P Quick Reference 11
Installing SFP Transceivers (optional)
Installing XFP Transceivers (optional)
To install 1Gbps SFPs (Small
Form-factor Pluggable optical
transceivers) into the four
SFP ports at the right front of
the S25P:
1. Position the SFP so that
the bail is closed and on
top of the SFP.
2. Insert the SFP into the
port until it gently snaps
into place.
Note: When populated, the
four SFP ports shown in the
graphic automatically
preempt the four copper ports
labeled 21 through 24.
In other words, while you use
a particular optical port, you
cannot use the equivalent
copper port.
Note: For details on SFP and XFP optics supported by Force10, see
http://www.force10networks.com/products/specifications.asp
Warning: Do not look directly into any optical port. Failure to follow this warning could result in
physical harm.
The two module slots on the back of the S25P both
accept optional 10-Gigabit modules.
To install an XFP transceiver into an XFP port (in the
fiber optical version of the 10-Gigabit module):
1. Position the XFP so that the bail is closed and on
top of the XFP.
2. Insert the XFP into the port until it gently snaps
into place.
Note: You can insert and remove optics without disabling the port or shutting down the system.
