If you need to install SFP transceivers, install them in the external Fibre Channel ports as required. a. Remove the dust plugs from the ports to be used. b. If necessary, remove the end caps from the SFP. c. Orient the transceiver correctly and insert it into a port until it is firmly seated and the latching mechanism clicks. For instructions specific to the type of transceiver, refer to the transceiver manufacturer's documentation. d. Repeat substeps a, b, and c for the remaining ports, as required. NOTE Use only brocade branded SFPs on the external optical ports of this module. 5. Connect the cables to the transceivers. The transceivers are keyed to ensure correct orientation. If a transceiver does not install easily, ensure that it is correctly oriented and that the end caps have been removed. The cables used in trunking groups must meet specific requirements.

c.
Re-enable the SAN I/O Module by entering the
switchEnable
command.
NOTE
It could take a short time (typically a few seconds, but sometimes up to 20 seconds) for the
newly added SAN I/O Module to appear in the fabric display with its newly assigned domain ID.
4.
If you need to install SFP transceivers, install them in the external Fibre Channel ports as
required.
a.
Remove the dust plugs from the ports to be used.
b.
If necessary, remove the end caps from the SFP.
c.
Orient the transceiver correctly and insert it into a port until it is firmly seated and the
latching mechanism clicks.
For instructions specific to the type of transceiver, refer to the transceiver manufacturer’s
documentation.
d.
Repeat substeps a, b, and c for the remaining ports, as required.
NOTE
Use only brocade branded SFPs on the external optical ports of this module.
5.
Connect the cables to the transceivers.
The
transceivers are keyed to ensure correct orientation. If a transceiver does not install easily,
ensure that it is correctly oriented and that the end caps have been removed. The cables used
in trunking groups must meet specific requirements. For a list of these requirements, see the
