Chapter 2
Connect to SFP Modules
This section describes how to connect to a fiber-optic SFP port. To connect to
an RJ45 Gigabit Ethernet port instead of a fiber-optic port, see the Connect to
the Switch Ports section on page 58.
Follow these steps to connect a fiber-optic cable to an SFP module:
1. Remove the rubber plugs from the module port and fiber-optic cable,
and store them for future use.
2. Insert one end of the fiber-optic cable into the SFP module port.
3. Insert the other cable end into a fiber-optic receptacle on a target device.
WARNING
Do not remove the rubber plugs from the SFP module port or the
rubber caps from the fiber-optic cable until you are ready to
connect the cable. The plugs and caps protect the SFP module
ports and cables from contamination and ambient light.
See Chapter 4
for information about the LC on the SFP module.
