1 Console port (RJ-45)
3 8 fixed-port Gigabit Ethernet data interfaces for
SFP+ transceivers
Flip the SFP+ over to connect in the upper ports.
Step 3
Install the SFP/SFP+ transceivers.
Install SFP/SFP+ transceivers in the Ethernet network interfaces in the fixed ports or in the network modules you have
installed taking care not to touch the contacts in the rear. Flip the SFP+ over to connect in the upper ports. The SFP+
transceiver connects in the normal way in the lower ports. The sockets on the upper row face up and the sockets on the
lower row face down.
Although non-Cisco SFP transceivers are allowed, we do not recommend using them because they have not
Note
been tested and validated by Cisco. Cisco TAC may refuse support for any interoperability problems that result
from using an untested third-party SFP transceiver. See
21 for a list of supported Cisco transceivers.
Step 4 Connect to the Ethernet interfaces.
Use the proper cable to connect the SFP/SFP+ transceivers in the fixed ports or in the network modules you have installed.
Step 5
(Optional) If you are installing the FIPS opacity shield, continue with step 6 in
48.
Step 6
Attach the power cable to the chassis and connect it to an electrical outlet.
Step 7 Press the power switch on the rear panel.
Step 8 Check the power LED on the front panel. Solid green indicates that the chassis is powered on.
Note When you toggle the power switch from ON to OFF, it takes several seconds for the system to power off. Do
not remove the power cable until the power LED is off. After removing power from the chassis either by moving
the power switch to OFF or unplugging the power cord, wait at least 10 seconds before turning power back
ON.
