Installing an SFP, SFP+, or XFP Optical Transceiver

NOTE

The XFP transceivers are used only with the FC10-6 port card.

Switches and blades that employ transceivers typically have them arranged in two rows, back to back. On most

switches and the DCX-4S Backbone, that means that the bottom row of transceivers is upside down in relation to the

top row.

Time required

The replacement procedure for an SFP or XFP takes less than five minutes.

Items required

• Replacement SFP, SFP+, or XFP

• Optical transceiver extraction tool

Most Brocade switches and backbones come with a transceiver extraction tool (Figure 1) and holster. The

extraction tool is designed to remove transceivers from switches and blades where the space is limited.
