Installing the Switch

6. Installing or Removing mini-GBICs

You can install or remove a mini-GBIC from a mini-GBIC slot without having

to power off the switch. Use only ProCurve mini-GBICs.

Notes ■ The mini-GBIC slots are not shared with the two 10/100/1000Base-T RJ-

45 ports. When a mini-GBIC is installed in a slot, it operates independently

of the RJ-45 ports.

■ The mini-GBIC ports operate only at full duplex. Half duplex operation is

not supported, unless a 100-FX SFP transceiver is installed. The 100-FX

SFP transceiver can operate at half duplex.

■ Ensure the network cable is NOT connected when you install or remove

a mini-GBIC.

Caution Use only supported genuine ProCurve mini-GBICs with your switch. Non-

ProCurve mini-GBICs are not supported, and their use may result in product

malfunction. Should you require additional ProCurve mini-GBICs, contact

your ProCurve Networking Sales and Service Office or authorized dealer.

Installing the mini-GBICs:

Remove the protective plastic cover and retain it for later use. Hold the mini-

GBIC by its sides and gently insert it into either of the slots on the switch until

the mini-GBIC clicks into place.

WARNING The ProCurve mini-GBICs are Class 1 laser devices. Avoid direct eye

exposure to the beam coming from the transmit port.
