INSTALLING AN OPTIONAL SFP/XFP TRANSCEIVER
Figure 10: Inserting an SFP/XFP Transceiver into a Slot
This switch supports 1000BASE-SX/LX/LH and 100BASE-FX SFP-compatible
transceivers on ports 1-24, and 10GBASE-SR/LR/ER XFP-compatible
transceivers on port 25-26. To install an SFP/XFP transceiver, do the following:
1. Consider network and cabling requirements to select an appropriate
transceiver type.
2. Insert the transceiver with the optical connector facing outward and the slot
connector facing down. Note that SFP/XFP transceivers are keyed so they
can only be installed in the correct orientation.
3. Slide the transceiver into the slot until it clicks into place.

SFP/XFP transceivers are hot-swappable. The switch does not
need to be powered off before installing or removing a transceiver.
However, always first disconnect the network cable before removing a
transceiver.
