Figure 6 Inserting a SFP Transceiver
5 The 1000BASE-SX or 1000BASE-LX fiber transceiver connects to the
network using a duplex LC connector. The 1000BASE-TX transceiver
connects to the network using an RJ-45 connector. If you are using a fiber
transceiver, attach a male duplex LC connector on the network cable into
the duplex LC connector on the transceiver. If using a 1000BASE-TX
transceiver, attach an RJ-45 connector on the network cable into the
RJ-45 connector on the transceiver.
6 Connect the other end of the cable to a device fitted with an appropriate
Gigabit Ethernet connection.
7 Check the Module Status LED on the front of the Switch to ensure that it
is operating correctly. Refer to “LEDs” on page 14 for more information.
Removing an SFP
Transceiver
If you wish to remove a 3Com transceiver (it is not necessary to
power-down your Switch):
1 Disconnect the cable from the transceiver.
2 Move the wire release lever downwards until it is pointing toward you.
3 Pull the wire release lever toward you to release the catch mechanism;
the transceiver will then easily slide out.
