installed in a slot, the associated RJ-45 port is disabled and cannot be used.
• Ensure the fiber network cable is NOT connected when you install or remove a mini-GBIC.

gently insert it into either of the slots on the controller until the mini-GBIC clicks into place.
WARNING! The HP mini-GBICs are Class 1 laser devices. Avoid direct eye exposure to the laser
beam coming from the transmit port.
