Note
It is recommended to use PLANET SFP+s on the
Media Converter. If you insert an SFP+ transceiver
that is not supported, the Media Converter will not
recognize it.
10GBASE-X SR/LR:
Before connecting the other switches, workstation or Media
Converter, please do the following:
1. Make sure both sides of the SFP+ transceiver are with the
same media type; for example, 10GBASE-SR to 10GBASE-SR,
10GBASE-LR to 10GBASE-LR.
2. Check whether the ber-optic cable type matches the SFP+
transceiver model.
 To connect to 10GBASE-SR SFP+ transceiver, use the
multi-mode ber cable with one side being the male
duplex LC connector type.
 To connect to 10GBASE-LR SFP+ transceiver, use the
single-mode ber cable with one side being the male
duplex LC connector type.
Connecting the ber cable
1. Attach the duplex LC connector of the network cable to the
SFP+ transceiver.
2. Connect the other end of the cable to a device like a switch
with SFP+ installed, ber NIC on a workstation or a Media
Converter.
 Removing the Transceiver Module
1. Make sure there is no network activity by consulting or
checking with the network administrator. Or through the
management interface of the switch/converter (if available),
