c. Reenable the switch by entering the switchEnable command.
7. Install the SFP transceivers as required.
a. Remove the dust plugs from the ports to be used as well as any end caps from.
b. Position a transceiver so that it is oriented 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.
c. Repeat steps a and b for the remaining ports, as required.
8. 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.
The cables used in trunking groups must meet specific requirements. For a list of these requirements, refer to the
Brocade Fabric OS Administrator’s Guide.
a. Orient a cable connector so that the key (the ridge on one side of connector) aligns with the slot in the transceiver.
Then, insert the cable into the transceiver until the latching mechanism clicks. For instructions specific to cable
type, refer to the cable manufacturer's documentation.
b. Repeat this procedure for the remaining transceivers.
9. Check the LEDs to verify that all components are functional. For information about LED patterns, refer to the
SilkWorm 4016 Hardware Reference Manual.
10. Verify the correct operation of the SilkWorm 4016 by typing the switchShow command from the workstation,
followed by the fabricShow command.
Note
It could take a short time (typically a few seconds but sometimes a little longer) for the
newly added switch to appear in the fabric display with its newly assigned domain ID.
Caution
A 50-micron cable should not be bent to a radius less than 2 inches under full tensile load and 1.2 inches with
