Cisco UCS 6332 User Manual

Use an SFP transceiver to connect to a Fibre Channel port.
Installing a Transceiver
Use an SFP+ transceiver to connect to an Ethernet or Fibre Channel port.
Procedure
Step 1 Attach an ESD wrist strap and follow the instructions for its use.
Step 2 Remove the dust cover from the port cage.
Step 3 Remove the dust cover from the port end of the transceiver.
Step 4 Insert the transceiver into the port:
• If the transceiver has a Mylar tab, position the transceiver with the tab on the bottom, and then gently
insert the transceiver into the port until it clicks into place.
• If the transceiver has a bale clasp, position the transceiver with the clasp on the bottom, close the clasp
by pushing it up over the transceiver, and then gently insert the transceiver into the port until it clicks
into place.
• If the transceiver does not install easily, ensure that it is correctly positioned and the tab or clasp are in
the correct position before continuing.
If you cannot install the cable into the transceiver, insert or leave the dust plug in the cable end of
the transceiver.
Note
Removing a Transceiver
Use an SFP+ transceiver to connect to an Ethernet or Fibre Channel port.
Excessively installing and removing an SFP or SFP+ transceiver can shorten its life. Do not remove and install
transceivers unless it is absolutely necessary. We recommend disconnecting cables before installing or removing
transceivers to prevent damage to the cable or transceiver.
Caution
Procedure
Step 1 Attach an ESD wrist strap and follow the instructions for its use.
Step 2 If a cable is installed in the transceiver:
a) Record the cable and port connections for later reference.
b) Press the release latch on the cable, grasp the connector near the connection point, and gently pull the
connector from the transceiver.
c) Insert a dust plug into the cable end of the transceiver.
If the transceiver does not remove easily in the next step, push the transceiver completely in and then
ensure that the latch is in the correct position before continuing.
