Inserting Fiber Optic Transceivers

Fiber transceivers can be inserted into data and management ports on the SSM160 switch modules. The ports can be SFP, SFP+ or XFP.

Slide the transceiver into the open Security Switch Module port.

Inserting QSFP Splitters

1. Insert the QSFP transceiver into the Security Switch Module.
2. Insert the QSFP splitter cable into the transceiver.

   This converts the 40GbE QSPF port to 4 x 10GbE ports.
