2.6 Installing Fiber Optic SFP Modules
Depending on the hardware configuration you purchased,
RICi-4E1/T1, RICi-8E1/T1 may use SFP modules with LC fiber optic connectors.
Third-party SFP optical transceivers must be agency-approved, complying with the
local laser safety regulations for Class 1 laser equipment.
³ To install SFP modules:
1. Lock the wire latch of each SFP module by lifting it up until it clicks into place,
as illustrated below.
Some SFP models have a plastic door instead of a wire latch.
Figure 2-1. Locking the SFP Wire Latch
2. Carefully remove the dust covers from the SFP slot.
3. Insert the rear end of SFP into the socket, and push slowly backwards to
mate the connectors until the SFP clicks into place. If you feel resistance
before the connectors are fully mated, retract the SFP using the wire latch as
a pulling handle, and then repeat the procedure.
4. Remove the protective rubber caps from the SFP modules.
