SFP+ transceiver for FC/iSCSI ports
This section describes how to install the small form-factor pluggable (SFP+) transceivers ordered with the ME4 Series FC/iSCSI
controller module.
Locate the SFP+ transceivers
Locate the SFP+ transceivers that shipped with the controller enclosure, which look similar to the generic SFP+ transceiver that is shown
in the following figure:

NOTE: Refer to the label on the SFP+ transceiver to determine whether it supports the FC or iSCSI protocol.
Install an SFP+ transceiver
Perform the following steps to install an SFP+ transceiver:
NOTE:
Follow the guidelines provided in Electrical safety when installing an SFP+ transceiver.
1. Orient the SFP+ transceiver with the port and align it for insertion.
For 2U controller enclosures, the transceiver is installed either right-side up, or upside down depending upon whether it is installed into
controller module A or B,
2. If the SFP+ transceiver has a plug, remove it before installing the transceiver. Retain the plug.
3. Flip the actuator open.
NOTE:
The actuator on your SFP+ transceiver may look slightly different than the one shown in Figure 41. Install an

4. Slide the SFP+ transceiver into the port until it locks securely into place.
5. Flip the actuator closed.
