1.Minimum cabling distance for optical X2 transceivers is 2 meters according to the IEEE 802.3ae standard. 2.Requires a 5-dB 1550-nm, fixed-loss attenuator for distances less than 20 km. 3.For distances up to 30 km, no special link design rules need to be considered. Link distances beyond 30 km require that you verify the cable characteristics, especially the cable's loss value. 4.When shorter distances of SMF are used, an inline optical attenuator (10 dB) must be used to avoid overloading and damaging the receiver.

Required Tools

You will need these tools to install the 10-Gigabit Ethernet X2 transceiver modules:

• Small flat-blade screwdriver for removing the X2 transceiver socket covers.
• Wrist strap or other personal grounding device to prevent ESD occurrences.
• Antistatic mat or antistatic foam to set the transceiver on.
• Fiber-optic end-face cleaning tools and inspection equipment. For complete information on inspecting and cleaning fiber-optic connections, refer to the Inspection and Cleaning Procedures for Fiber-Optic Connections document at this URL:

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk482/tk876/technologies_white_paper09186a0080254eba.shtml

Installing the 10-Gigabit Ethernet X2 Transceiver Module

---

Note This installation procedure applies to both the spring-loaded and non-spring-loaded X2 transceiver modules.

---

---

Caution The X2 transceiver is a static-sensitive device. Always use an ESD wrist strap or similar individual grounding device when handling X2 transceivers or coming into contact with system modules.

---

To install an X2 transceiver module, follow these steps:

---

Step 1 Using a small flat-blade screwdriver, carefully pry the X2 transceiver port cover off of the system module faceplate. Use the two arrows on the port cover as guides for inserting the screwdriver blade. Save the port cover for future use.

Step 2 Remove the new X2 transceiver module from its protective packaging.

Step 3 Check the label on the X2 transceiver module body to verify that you have the correct model for your network.

Step 4 Remove the dust plug from X2 transceiver module optical port and set it aside.

Step 5 Slide the X2 transceiver into the transceiver socket on the system module front panel until the X2 transceiver EMI gasket flange makes contact with the system module faceplate. (See Figure 2.)

---

Note 10-Gigabit Ethernet X2 transceiver modules are keyed to prevent incorrect insertion.

---

Figure 2 Installing the 10-Gigabit Ethernet X2 Transceiver Module

 

Step 6 Press firmly on the front of the X2 transceiver module with your thumb to fully seat the transceiver in the transceiver socket. (See Figure 3.)

Figure 3 Latching the X2 Transceiver Module

 

Step 7 Verify that the X2 transceiver is properly seated and latched in the socket, by grasping the left and right sides (or the top and bottom) of the transceiver’s EMI gasket flange with your thumb and forefinger and gently pulling on the transceiver. Do not pull on the latching sleeve as you will release the transceiver.

If the transceiver does not pull free, it is properly seated and latched.

If the transceiver does pull free, slide the X2 transceiver back into the socket and apply more pressure with your thumb on the front of the transceiver. Repeat the process until the X2 transceiver is securely latched in the socket.

Step 8 Reinstall the dust plug into the transceiver’s optical bore until you are ready to attach the network interface cable.

Step 9 If you are cabling an optical X2 transceiver module, follow these sub-steps. If you are cabling a CX4 X2 transceiver module, go to step 10.

a. Remove the dust plugs from the optical network interface cable SC connectors. Save the dust plugs for future use.

b. Inspect and clean the SC connector’s fiber-optic end faces.

For complete information on inspecting and cleaning fiber-optic connections, refer to the Inspection and Cleaning Procedures for Fiber-Optic Connections document at this URL:

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk482/tk876/technologies_white_paper09186a0080254eba.shtml

c. Remove the dust plugs from the X2 transceiver module optical bores.

d. Immediately attach the network interface cable SC connectors to the X2 transceiver module. (See Figure 4.)

Figure 4 Cabling an Optical 10-Gigabit Ethernet X2 Transceiver Module

 

Step 10 Plug the InfiniBand cable connector into the CX4 X2 transceiver module connector. (See Figure 5.) Make sure that the InfiniBand cable connector is aligned with the X2 transceiver module.

Figure 5 Cabling a CX4 (Copper) 10-Gigabit Ethernet X2 Transceiver Module

 

Step 11 Carefully route the InfiniBand network cable through the cable management brackets on your system. Figure 6 shows how the InfiniBand cable should be routed through either a horizontal cable management bracket or a vertical cable management bracket.

---

Note Make sure that you route the InfiniBand cable through cable management brackets to provide adequate strain relief and cable support when cabling CX4 X2 transceiver modules. The InfiniBand cable is heavy. Without proper support, the InfiniBand cable can cause the cable connector to sag or skew. Misalignment between the cable connector and the transceiver module connector can cause intermittent connections between the cable connector pins and the CX4 X2 transceiver module pins.

---

To remove an X2 transceiver, follow these steps:

---

Step 1 Disconnect the network interface cable from the X2 transceiver module connectors. If this is an optical X2 transceiver module, immediately reinstall dust plugs in the X2 transceiver module optical bores and in the fiber-optic cable SC connectors.

Step 2 Place your thumb and forefinger around the X2 transceiver module EMI gasket flange and gently press the EMI gasket flange against the system module front panel. (See Figure 7, top view.) At the same time, with the thumb and forefinger of your other hand, grip the sides of the X2 transceiver module latching sleeve, and pull the latching sleeve out to release the X2 transceiver module from the socket connector. Release the latching sleeve when you feel the X2 transceiver module unlatch.

Step 3 Slide the X2 transceiver module out of the socket. (See Figure 7, bottom view.) Immediately place the X2 transceiver module in an antistatic bag.

Step 4 If you are not installing an X2 transceiver module in the empty socket, place a socket cover over the empty socket opening and press on the cover until it snaps into place.

Translated Safety Warnings

This section repeats in multiple languages the basic warnings that appear in this document.

Statement 70—Invisible Laser Radiation Warning

 

Warning	Because invisible laser radiation may be emitted from the aperture of the port when no cable is connected, avoid exposure to laser radiation and do not stare into open apertures.
Waarschuwing	Omdat er onzichtbare laserstraling uit de opening van de poort geëmitteerd kan worden wanneer er geen kabel aangesloten is, dient men om blootstelling aan laserstraling te vermijden niet in de open openingen te kijken.
Varoitus	Kun porttiin ei ole kytketty kaapelia, portin aukosta voi vuotaa näkymätöntä lasersäteilyä. Älä katso avoimiin aukkoihin, jotta et altistu säteilylle.
Attention	Etant donné qu’un rayonnement laser invisible peut être émis par l’ouverture du port quand aucun câble n’est connecté, ne pas regarder dans les ouvertures béantes afin d’éviter tout risque d’exposition au rayonnement laser.
Warnung	Aus der Öffnung des Ports kann unsichtbare Laserstrahlung austreten, wenn kein Kabel angeschlossen ist. Kontakt mit Laserstrahlung vermeiden und nicht in offene Öffnungen blicken.
Avvertenza	Poiché quando nessun cavo è collegato alla porta, da quest’ultima potrebbe essere emessa radiazione laser invisibile, evitare l’esposizione a tale radiazione e non fissare con gli occhi porte a cui non siano collegati cavi.
Advarsel	Usynlige laserstråler kan sendes ut fra åpningen på utgangen når ingen kabel er tilkoblet. Unngå utsettelse for laserstråling og se ikke inn i åpninger som ikke er tildekket.
Aviso	Evite uma exposição à radiação laser e não olhe através de aberturas expostas, porque poderá ocorrer emissão de radiação laser invisível a partir da abertura da porta, quando não estiver qualquer cabo conectado.
¡Advertencia!	Cuando no esté conectado ningún cable, pueden emitirse radiaciones láser invisibles por el orificio del puerto. Evitar la exposición a radiaciones láser y no mirar fijamente los orificios abiertos.
Varning!	Osynliga laserstrålar kan sändas ut från öppningen i porten när ingen kabel är ansluten. Undvik exponering för laserstrålning och titta inte in i ej täckta öppningar.
