Step 7
Attach the AC power cord to the AC In connector on the converter chassis. (See Figure 4.) Connect the other end of the power cord to source AC.
Installing the SFP Transceivers
CautionWe strongly recommend that you do not install or remove the SFP transceiver module with fiber-optic cables attached to it because of the potential damage to the cables, the cable connector, or the optical interfaces in the SFP transceiver. Disconnect all cables before removing or installing an SFP transceiver.
Removing and installing an SFP transceiver can shorten its useful life. Do not remove and insert SFP transceivers more often than is absolutely necessary.
CautionThe SFP transceiver modules are static sensitive devices. Always use an ESD wrist strap or similar individual grounding device when handling SFP transceivers or coming in contact with modules.
SFP transceiver modules can have three types of latching devices to secure an SFP transceiver in a port socket:
•
Figure 5 shows an SFP transceiver with a Mylar tab latch.
•
Figure 6 shows an SFP transceiver with an actuator button latch.
•
Figure 7 shows an SFP transceiver that has a bale-clasp latch.
Determine which type of latch your SFP transceiver uses before following the installation and removal procedures.
Figure 5 SFP Transceiver Module with a Mylar Tab Latch
Figure 6 SFP Transceiver Module with an Actuator Button Latch
Figure 7 SFP Module with a Bale-Clasp Latch
To install an SFP transceiver, follow these steps:
Step 1
Attach an ESD-preventive wrist strap to your wrist and to the ESD ground connector or a bare metal surface on your chassis.
Step 2
Remove the SFP transceiver module from its protective packaging.
Note
Do not remove the optical bore dust plugs until you are directed to do so later in the procedure.
Step 3
Check the label on the SFP transceiver body to verify that you have the correct model for your network.
Step 4
Find the send (TX) and receive (RX) markings that identify the top side of the SFP transceiver.
Note
On some SFP transceivers, the TX and RX marking might be replaced by arrowheads pointing from the SFP transceiver connector (transmit direction or TX) and toward the connector (receive direction or RX).
Step 5
Position the SFP transceiver in front of the socket opening.
Step 6
Insert the SFP transceiver into the socket until you feel the SFP transceiver module connector snap into place in the socket connector. (See Figure 8.)

Warning
Invisible laser radiation may be emitted from disconnected fibers or connectors. Do not stare into beams or view directly with optical instruments. Statement 1051
Note
For optical SFP transceivers, before removing the dust plugs and making any optical connections, observe the following guidelines:
•
Always keep the protective dust plugs on the unplugged fiber-optic cable connectors and the transceiver optical bores until you are ready to make a connection.
•
Always inspect and clean the LC connector end-faces just before making any connections. Refer to the Tip on this page for a pointer to a fiber-optic inspection and cleaning white paper.
•
Always grasp the LC connector housing to plug or unplug a fiber-optic cable.
To cable the converter, perform the following steps:
Step 1
Remove the dust plugs from the network interface cable LC connectors. Save the dust plugs for future use.
Step 2
Inspect and clean the LC connector's fiber-optic end-faces. Refer to the Tip below for a pointer to a fiber-optic inspection and cleaning white paper.
Tip
For complete information on inspecting and cleaning fiber-optic connections, refer to the white paper at this URL:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk482/tk607/technologies_white_paper09186a0080254eba.shtml
Step 3
Remove the dust plugs from the SFP transceiver optical bores.
Step 4
Immediately attach the network interface cable LC connector to the SFP transceiver.
Step 5
To connect 1000BASE-T SFP transceivers to a copper network, perform the following substeps:
CautionTo comply with GR-1089 intrabuilding lightning immunity requirements, you must use grounded, shielded, twisted-pair, Category 5 cabling.
a.
Insert the Category 5 network cable RJ-45 connector into the SFP transceiver RJ-45 connector.
Note
When connecting to a 1000BASE-T-compatible server, workstation, or router, use four twisted-pair, straight-through Category 5 cabling for the SFP transceiver port. When connecting to a 1000BASE-T-compatible switch or repeater, use four twisted-pair, crossover Category 5 cabling.
b.
Insert the other end of the network cable into an RJ-45 connector on a 1000BASE-T-compatible target device.
Figure 9 shows a sample cabling scheme for the 2-channel wavelength converter. In this example, you would use 1000BASE-LX/LH SFPs to interface between the module and the 2-channel wavelength converter, and you would use CWDM SFPs to interface from the 2-channel wavelength converter to the network.
