EMC Connectrix B Series v6.2 ED-DCX-4S-B Hardware Reference Manual
Installation
Installing SFPs and attaching cables
Follow these steps to install SFPs (or XFPs with a PB-48K-10G-6 port
card installed) and cables to the ED-DCX-4S-B.
The ports are color-coded to indicate which can be used in the same
port group for trunking (trunking port groups can be up to eight
ports). The ports and cables used in trunking groups must meet
specific requirements. Refer to the EMC Connectrix B Series Fabric OS
Administrator’s Guide for more information.
1. Position one of the optical transceivers so that the key is oriented
correctly to the port. Insert the transceiver into the port until it is
firmly seated and the latching mechanism clicks.
Transceivers are keyed so that they can only be inserted with the
correct orientation. If a transceiver does not slide in easily, ensure
that it is correctly oriented.
2. Position a cable so that the key (the ridge on one side of the cable
connector) is aligned with the slot in the transceiver. Insert the
cable into the transceiver until the latching mechanism clicks.
Cables are keyed so that they can be inserted in only one way. If a
cable does not slide in easily, ensure that it is correctly oriented.
3. Repeat step 1 and step 2 for the remaining ports.
