Installing the SAN Switch Install the SFP Transceivers The SAN Switch 2/8V, 2/16V and 2/16N do not ship with SFP transceivers, these are a saleable option. Use the following procedure to install the SFP transceivers into the Fibre Channel ports. A list of supported SFPs can be found in "Technical Specifications" on page 87. The ports selected for use in trunking groups must meet specific requirements. For a list of these requirements, refer to the HP StorageWorks Fabric OS Features 4.2.x User Guide. To install SFP transceivers: 1. Position a transceiver so that it is oriented correctly and insert it into a port until the latching mechanism clicks. The transceivers are keyed to ensure correct orientation. If a transceiver does not install easily, ensure that it is correctly oriented. For instructions specific to the type of transceiver, refer to the transceiver manufacturer's documentation. 2. Repeat for the remaining ports, as required. Connect the Cables Caution: The minimum bend radius for a 50-micron cable is 2 inches under full tensile load, and 1.2 inches with no tensile load. Because they are easily overtightened, tie wraps are not recommended for optical cables. Connect the cables to the transceivers: 1. The cable connectors are keyed to ensure correct orientation. Orient a cable connector so that the key (ridge on one side of connector) aligns with the slot in the transceiver and insert cable into transceiver until latching mechanism clicks. If a cable does not install easily, ensure it is correctly oriented. For instructions specific to cable type, refer to the cable manufacturer's documentation. 2. Repeat for the remaining transceivers, as required. 54 SAN Switch 2/8V, 2/16V and 2/16N Installation Guide

SAN Switch 2/8V, 2/16V and 2/16N Installation Guide
Install the SFP Transceivers
The SAN Switch 2/8V, 2/16V and 2/16N do not ship with SFP transceivers, these
are a saleable option.
Use the following procedure to install the SFP transceivers into the Fibre Channel
ports. A list of supported SFPs can be found in “
Technical Specifications
” on
page 87.
The ports selected for use in trunking groups must meet specific requirements. For
a list of these requirements, refer to the
HP StorageWorks Fabric OS Features
4.2.x User Guide
.
To install SFP transceivers:
1.
Position a transceiver so that it is oriented correctly and insert it into a port
until the latching mechanism clicks. The transceivers are keyed to ensure
correct orientation. If a transceiver does not install easily, ensure that it is
correctly oriented.
For instructions specific to the type of transceiver, refer to the transceiver
manufacturer’s documentation.
2.
Repeat for the remaining ports, as required.
Connect the Cables
Caution:
The minimum bend radius for a 50-micron cable is 2 inches under
full tensile load, and 1.2 inches with no tensile load.
Because they are easily overtightened, tie wraps are not recommended for
optical cables.
Connect the cables to the transceivers:
1.
The cable connectors are keyed to ensure correct orientation. Orient a cable
connector so that the key (ridge on one side of connector) aligns with the slot
in the transceiver and insert cable into transceiver until latching mechanism
clicks. If a cable does not install easily, ensure it is correctly oriented. For
instructions specific to cable type, refer to the cable manufacturer’s
