Hardware Overview Introduction
100Base-FX SFP Line Card
The 16-port 100Base-FX SFP line card contains 16 independent Ethernet ports that can be individually configured
with SFP transceivers.. Figure 2-14 shows the front panel of the 16-port 100Base-FX SFP line card.

SFP transcievers provide the media-specific portion of a 100Base-FX SFP line card and support Gigabit Ethernet
connectivity across multiple media types and distances. The host Gigabit Ethernet line card provides power,
initialization, and control for each transceiver. Any combination of SFP tranceivers can be used on a single
100Base-FX SFP line card. The SFP tranceivers are not factory installed; you must order, insert, and connect them per
your requirements.
The 100Base-FX SFP line cards accept the SFP transceivers shown in Table 2-18.
External Controls, Indicators, and Connections
The Gigabit Ethernet line card has the following external controls, indicators, and connections:
•
Use the Hot Swap switch (HOT SWP) to deactivate the module prior to hot swapping. See the
Riverstone Networks RS Switch Router User Guide for line card hot swap information.
•
The Gigabit Ethernet SFP transceiver ports are described earlier in this section.
•
Each SFP transceiver has associated with it a Port Status LED.
-
If the Port is lit Green, a link is established with the port.
-
If the Port is lit Yellow, there is activity on on the port.
•
The Card Status LEDs are comprised of the following:
Lnk Each port has two LEDs located to the left of the connector. The green
Lnk LED indicates the link status. When this LED is lit, the port
hardware is detecting that a cable is plugged into the port and the port
has established communication with the device at the other end.
Act The amber Act LED flashes each time the port’s transceiver sends or
receives packets.
