Step6: Proceeds with the steps 4 and steps 5 of session 2.2.1 Desktop Installation to connect the network cabling and

supply power to the Gigabit Ethernet Switch.

2.2.3 Installing the SFP transceiver

The sections describe how to insert an SFP transceiver into an SFP slot.

The SFP transceivers are hot-pluggable and hot-swappable. You can plug-in and out the transceiver to/from any SFP port

without having to power down the Gigabit Ethernet Switch. As the Figure 2-10 appears.

Approved PLANET SFP Transceivers

PLANET Gigabit Ethernet Switch supports both single mode and multi mode SFP transceiver. The following list of

approved PLANET SFP transceivers is correct at the time of publication:

■MGB-SX SFP (1000Base-SX SFP transceiver )

■MGB-LX SFP (1000Base-LX SFP transceiver )

#Notice:

It recommends using PLANET SFP transceiver on the Gigabit Ethernet Switch. If you insert a SFP

transceiver that is not supported, the Gigabit Ethernet Switch will not recognize it.

Before connect the other switches, workstation or Media Converter.

1. Make sure both side of the SFP transfer are with the same media type, for example: 1000Base-SX to 1000Base-SX,

1000Bas-LX to 1000Base-LX.

2. Check the fiber-optic cable type match the SFP transfer model.

¾ To connect to 1000Base-SX SFP transfer, use the multi-mode fiber cable- with one side must be male duplex

LC connector type.

¾ To connect to 1000Base-LX SFP transfer, use the single-mode fiber cable-with one side must be male duplex

LC connector type.
