Install the SFP Modules and Connect to the Ports
Follow these steps:
For a list of supported modules, see the release notes on Cisco.com. For detailed instructions on
installing, removing, and connecting to SFP modules, see the documentation that came with the
SFP module.
Caution Removing and inserting an SFP module can shorten its useful life. Do not remove and
insert SFP modules more often than is absolutely necessary.
Verify Port Connectivity
After you connect to the switch port, the port LED turns amber while the switch establishes a link.
This process takes about 30 seconds. Then the LED turns green when the switch and the target device
have an established link. If the LED is off, the target device might not be turned on, there might be a
cable problem, or there might be a problem with the adapter installed in the target device. See the “In
Case of Difficulty” section on page 34 for information about online assistance.
Step 1
Grasp the module on the sides, and
insert it into the switch slot until you
feel the connector snap into place.
Step 2
Insert an appropriate cable into the
module port. Insert the other cable
end into the other device.
