Installing the Transceivers
The router supports a variety of SFP transceivers.
To install a transceiver, insert the transceiver into the port, and then gently
press until it snaps in place.
To remove a transceiver, gently press the transceiver into the port to release
tension, pull the release tab or lever, and then remove the transceiver.
Different transceiver manufacturers have different release mechanisms.
Consult the documentation for your transceiver.
CAUTION
If the router is mounted in a closed or multi-rack assembly, the operating
temperature of the rack environment may be greater than the ambient
temperature. Be sure to install the chassis in an environment that is
compatible with the maximum rated ambient temperature.
Do not restrict chassis air flow. Allow 16cm (6.5 inches) minimum
clearance at the front and rear of the router (surface mount) or rack for
service access and ventilation.
Multiple rack-mounted units connected to the AC supply circuit may
overload that circuit or overload the AC supply wiring. Consider the
power source capacity and the total power usage of all routers on the
circuit.
Reliable grounding in the rack must be maintained from the router
chassis to the AC power source.
CAUTION
Ensure that you insert the 8Gb or 10Gb SFP transceiver into the correct
port. These transceiver types are not interchangeable.
NOTE
The transceiver fits only one way. If the transceiver does not install under
gentle pressure, flip it over and try again.
