DXS-3600-32S 10GbE Layer 2/3 Switch Hardware Installation Guide Figure 2-3 Installing the Switch in a rack Make sure that there is adequate space around the Switch to allow for proper air flow, ventilation, and cooling. Installing Transceivers into the Transceiver Ports The switch is equipped with small form-factor pluggable plus (SFP+) ports that can be used to connect various other networking devices to this switch that do not support the standard copper wiring connection. These ports are generally used to connect this switch to networking devices that can only be accessed via an optical fiber connection and is normally used for a connection that spans greater distances. The maximum distance that the copper wiring connection can reach is 100 meters. Fiber optic connections can span over several kilometers. The figure below illustrates how to properly insert SFP+ transceivers into the switch's SFP+ ports. 9

Installing Transceivers into the Transceiver Ports
The switch is equipped with small form-factor pluggable plus (SFP+) ports that can be used to connect various other
networking devices to this switch that do not support the standard copper wiring connection. These ports are generally
used to connect this switch to networking devices that can only be accessed via an optical fiber connection and is
normally used for a connection that spans greater distances. The maximum distance that the copper wiring connection
can reach is 100 meters. Fiber optic connections can span over several kilometers.
