Dell SCv3000 Deployment Guide

Using SFP+ Transceiver Modules
You can connect to the front-end port of a storage controller using a direct-attached SFP+ cable or an SFP+ transceiver module. An
SCv3000 and SCv3020 storage system with 16 Gb Fibre Channel or 10 GbE iSCSI storage controllers uses short-range small-form-factor
pluggable (SFP+) transceiver modules.

The SFP+ transceiver modules are installed into the front-end ports of a storage controller.
Guidelines for Using SFP+ Transceiver Modules
Before installing SFP+ transceiver modules and ber-optic cables, read the following guidelines.
CAUTION
: When handling static-sensitive devices, take precautions to avoid damaging the product from static electricity.
• Use only Dell-supported SFP+ transceiver modules with the Storage Center. Other generic SFP+ transceiver modules are not
supported and might not work with the Storage Center.
• The SFP+ transceiver module housing has an integral guide key that is designed to prevent you from inserting the transceiver module
incorrectly.
• Use minimal pressure when inserting an SFP+ transceiver module into a Fibre Channel port. Forcing the SFP+ transceiver module into a
port could damage the transceiver module or the port.
• The SFP+ transceiver module must be installed into a port before you connect the ber-optic cable.
• The ber-optic cable must be removed from the SFP+ transceiver module before you remove the transceiver module from the port.
Install an SFP+ Transceiver Module
Use the following procedure to install an SFP+ transceiver module into a storage controller.
About this task
Read the following cautions and information before installing an SFP+ transceiver module.
WARNING
: To reduce the risk of injury from laser radiation or damage to the equipment, take the following precautions:
• Do not open any panels, operate controls, make adjustments, or perform procedures to a laser device other than those specied in
this document.
• Do not stare into the laser beam.
CAUTION: Transceiver modules can be damaged by electrostatic discharge (ESD). To prevent ESD damage to the transceiver
module, take the following precautions:
• Wear an antistatic discharge strap while handling transceiver modules.
• Place transceiver modules in antistatic packing material when transporting or storing them.
