Installing Transceivers into the Transceiver Ports

The Switch is equipped with Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP) and Enhanced Small

Form-factor Pluggable (SFP+) ports that can be used to connect various other networking

devices to this switch that do not support the standard RJ-45 wiring connection. These

ports are generally used to connect this switch to optical fiber connections and can be

used to connect devices to the Switch over great distances. The maximum distance that

the RJ-45 wiring connection can reach is 100 meters. Fiber optic connections can span

several kilometers.
