Maintaining the 8Gb SAN Switch
The 8Gb SAN Switch does not require any regular physical maintenance.
However, it is critical that environmental conditions, described in Environmental requirements, page 53,
are met to help prevent switch failure due to heat stress or improper air flow.
Installing dust covers in empty ports
The dust covers included in the 8Gb SAN Switch shipping carton (see Figure 1) must be inserted in
ports where SFPs are not installed. Installing dust covers ensures proper air flow and helps reduce
dust contamination of the switch.
Replacing an SFP transceiver
In some cases, you might need to reinstall an SFP transceiver.
To remove an SFP transceiver:
1. Press and hold the cable release.
2. Remove the cable from the transceiver.
3. Pull the bail (wire handle) to release the transceiver.
4. Grasp the bail, and gently but firmly pull the transceiver out of the port.
5. Repeat this procedure for the remaining ports as required.
To install a replacement SFP:
1. Make sure that the bail is in the unlocked position.
