Installing the Hardware

1000BASE-SX and 1000BASE-LX Expansion Modules

The 1000BASE-SX expansion module supports multimode fiber (MMF), and the

1000BASE-LX expansion module supports single-mode fiber (SMF) as well as MMF.

Figure 21 shows how to plug your fiber cable into a port on the 1000BASE-SX or

1000BASE-LX expansion module.

The procedure following the figure describes how to set up and insert the cables.

Figure 21. Plugging an ethernet cable into a 1000BASE-SX or 1000BASE-LX expansion

module

The 1000BASE-SX and 1000BASE-LX expansion modules use SC-style Media Interface

Connectors (MICs) to attach to SMF and/or MMF cables.

To attach the segment cables to your 1000BASE-SX or 1000BASE-LX expansion module,

obtain a SMF and/or MMF cable with an SC MIC and plug the MIC into the port

connector. When you plug the other end of the cable into another device, insure that the

cable connected to the transmit port on the XP-2000 is connected to the receive port on the

other device. The receive port on the XP-2000 should be connected to the transmit port on

the other device.

Dual Serial and Quad Serial – C/CE Expansion Modules

The Dual Serial and Quad Serial – C/CE expansion modules each use the same 60-pin

LFH-60 high density connector to link to their respective Channel Service Units/Data

Service Units (CSU/DSUs). Figure 23 on page 39 shows how to plug your serial cable into

a port on the Dual Serial or Quad Serial – C/CE expansion modules.
