Chapter 4: Installing the Switch
Task 6: Install Transceivers and Connect Cables
Install QSFP+ transceivers and connect network cables to port interfaces:
• For RJ-45 ports, use 100-ohm Category 5e, 6, 6a or 7 twisted-pair cable for
10GBASE-T connections, or Category 5, 5e or better cable for 1000BASE-T
connections.
• Connect DAC cables to the QSFP+ slots. Or first install QSFP+ transceivers and
then connect fiber optic cabling to the transceiver ports.
As connections are made, check the port status LEDs to be sure the links are valid.
Go to Chapter 5 for further details.
