Installing QSFP+ Transceivers and Cables
Review the following guidelines before installing optional QSFP+
transceivers in the switch:
QSFP+ transceivers can be hot-swapped while the switch is
powered on. However, you should always disconnect the fiber
optic cables first before removing a module.
You should install the module before connecting the fiber optic
cable.
Unnecessary removal and insertion of a module can lead to
premature failure.
Go to “Optional QSFP+ Transceivers” on page 18 for a list of
approved QSFP+ transceivers for the AT-DC2552XS.
Allied Telesis recommends using the following SFP+ cables listed
in Table 10:
