FoxGate S6200 Series Installation Guide Chapter 2 Hardware Installation
Caution!
Do not stare directly at the 2 fiber bore in the SFP transceiver when the switch is in
operation, otherwise the laser may hurt your eyes.
2.3.4 Copper Cable/Fiber Cable Connection
Copper cables should be connected as below:
Step 1: Insert one end of the Ethernet cable to the RJ-45 Ethernet port in the switch
copper cable line card;
Step 2: Insert the other end of the Ethernet cable to the RJ-45 Ethernet port of other
device;
Step 3: Check all status indicators for the corresponding ports; a lighted LED indicates
that the link has been established, otherwise the link is not ready and the cable should be
examined.
Caution!
Please verify the sign above the port to ensure using the right port. Connecting to
wrong ports might damage the switch.
Fiber cables should be connected as below:
Step 1: Remove the protective plug from the SFP/XFP fiber transceiver bore; Remove
the protective cap from one end of the fiber cable. Keep the fiber end clean and neat.
Step 2: Attach one end of the fiber cable to the SFP/XFP transceiver, and attach the
other end to the transceiver of the corresponding devices. Note: The SFP/XFP
transceiver’s TX port should be connected to the RX port of the corresponding device,
and vice versa.
Step 3: Check the fiber port status indicator, a lighted LED indicates that the link has
been established; otherwise the link is not ready and should be examined.
Caution!
Please verify the sign above the port to ensure using the other ports. Connecting to
wrong ports might damage the transceiver or the other ports. When connecting other
devices through a fiber cable to the switch, the output power of the fiber cable must not
exceed the maximum received power of the corresponding modules. Otherwise, it will
damage the switch. Do not stare at the fiber bore when the switch is in operation. That
may hurt your eyes.
