NOTE

The socket should be installed near the equipment and should be easily accessible.

Installing an SFP+ transceiver

To monitor the transceivers, the showmedia command output shows the transceiver information 
for all interfaces on the switch. Third party transceivers are allowed. Brocade will provide support 
for such a system but may require that a Brocade transceiver be used for troubleshooting.

Support will not be provided if there is an issue with the third party transceiver.

Complete the following steps to install an SFP+ transceiver.

1. Remove any protector plugs from the transceivers and the ports.

2. Making sure that the bail (wire handle) is in the unlocked position, place the SFP+ transceiver 

in the correctly oriented position on the port, as shown in 

3. Slide the SFP+ transceiver into the port until you feel it click into place; then close the bail.

NOTE
Each SFP+ transceiver has a 10-pad gold-plated edge connector on the bottom. The correct 
position to insert an SFP+ transceiver in the upper row of ports is with the gold-plated edge down. 
The correct position to insert an SFP+ transceiver in the lower row of ports is with the gold-plated 
edge up.
