Installing Dedicated CX4/SFP+ Cable
z Make sure that you have installed a CX4/SFP+ interface module before installing dedicated
CX4/SFP+ cables.
z The installation and removal procedures of a CX4 cable are similar to that of an SFP+ cable. This
section describes the installation and removal of the SFP+ cable for illustration.
Step1 Put on an ESD-preventive wrist strap and verify the ESD-preventive wrist strap properly grounded.

dedicated CX4/SFP+ cable is connected.
Installing Switches for an IRF
The S5500-EI series support the IRF function. You can install IRF-capable interface modules to connect
multiple switches through the 10 GE ports to form a logical entity, thus to establish a new intelligent
network with high reliability, expandability and manageability.
