Figure 4-5. Attaching the adhesive rubber feet.
Step 2: Set the device on a flat surface near an AC power source, making sure there are at least two inches of space on all sides
for proper air flow.
Step 3: If installing a single switch only, go to “Connecting to a Power Source” at the end of this Chapter.
Step 4: If installing multiple switches, attach four adhesive feet to each one. Place each device squarely on top of the one below,
in any order.
4.5 Installing an Optional SFP Transceiver
You can install or remove an SFP from an SFP slot without powering off the switch. Use only compatible SFPs.
NOTE: On the LPB2910A and LPB2926A, the SFP slots are shared with the two 10/100/1000BASE-T RJ-45 ports. If an SFP is
installed in a slot, the associated RJ-45 port is disabled and cannot be used.
The SFPs operate only at full duplex. Half-duplex operation is not supported.
Make sure the network cable is NOT connected when you install or remove an SFP module.
