Installing the Series 2300
and 2500 Switches
2. Install Transceivers (optional)
Install a transceiver into one or both of the slots as shown in the illustration
below. For installation details, see the instructions in the Installation Guide
that comes with the transceiver.
The slot cover can be removed with either a flat-bladed or Torx T-10 screw-
driver. Keep the slot cover for future use.
Transceiver
Notes
■ Any of the supported Gbps (gigabit) and 100 Mbps transceivers can be
installed in the slots in the Series 2300 and 2500 switches. See “Supported
Transceivers” below.
■ Make sure the transceivers are fully installed and that you screw
in the retaining screws to secure the transceivers in place.
■ If you do not install a transceiver in one or both of the slots, make sure
that the slot cover plate(s) is still attached over the slot for safe operation
and proper switch cooling.
■ The transceivers can be installed while the switch is powered on. Once
the transceivers are installed, reset the switch by pressing the
Reset button on the front of the switch. This resets/reboots the switch
which initializes and activates the transceiver. Until the switch is reset/
rebooted, the transceiver will not be operational. If you install the trans-
ceivers when the switch is powered off, powering on the switch after the
installation will initialize the transceivers.
■ In the Series 2500 and 2300 switches, the transceivers can operate only at
full duplex. Half duplex operation is not supported.
