xcvrs_3-2002.fm Page 3 Tuesday, April 2, 2002 3:23 PM Installation Steps To install the HP Procurve High-Speed Transceivers, follow these steps: 1. Fully insert the transceiver into an HP networking device's transceiver slot until the transceiver “snaps” into place, and secure the transceiver with the retaining screws. If the transceiver slot is in a module that has not yet been installed into the switch, then install the module into the switch. 2.

The transceiver will “snap” into place, and the transceiver's faceplate should touch the face of the switch or module. The following illustration shows the transceiver being installed in an HP Procurve Switch Gigabit Transceiver GL Module. slide the transceiver into the slot until it snaps into place 4.

The cables must comply with the ITU-T G.651 and ISO/IEC 793-2 Type A1b or A1a standards.
xcvrs_3-2002.fm Page 6 Tuesday, April 2, 2002 3:23 PM Note on 1000Base-T Cable Requirements. The Category 5 networking cables that work for 100Base-TX connections should also work for 1000Base-T, as long as all four-pairs are connected. But, for the most robust connections you should use cabling that complies with the Category 5E specifications, as described in Addendum 5 to the TIA-568-A standard (ANSI/TIA/EIA-568-A-5).
xcvrs_3-2002.fm Page 7 Tuesday, April 2, 2002 3:23 PM To connect a fiber-optic cable to a transceiver: 1. For fiber-optic transceivers, remove the plastic dust covers from the cable connectors and from the transceiver port. 2. Press the connector into the jack so that the tabs on the connector slide into the notches in the jack and the connector snaps securely into place. notches Fiber cable with duplex SC connector 3.
xcvrs_3-2002.fm Page 8 Tuesday, April 2, 2002 3:23 PM Specifications for the HP Procurve High-Speed Transceivers Laser The Gigabit-SX and Gigabit-LX transceivers are Class 1 Laser Products (Laser Klasse 1). They comply with IEC 825-2: 1993. Environmental Operating Non-Operating Temperature: 0°C to 55°C (32°F to 131°F) -40°C to 70°C (-40°F to 158°F) Relative humidity: (non-condensing) 15% to 95% at 40°C (104°F) 15% to 90% at 65°C (149°F) Maximum altitude: 4.6 km (15,000 ft) 4.

Unlike Gigabit-SX, which connects to only multimode fiber-optic cabling, Gigabit-LX can use either single-mode or multimode cable.
xcvrs_3-2002.fm Page 10 Tuesday, April 2, 2002 3:23 PM Installing the Patch Cord As shown in the illustration below, connect the patch cord to the Gigabit-LX Transceiver with the section of single-mode fiber plugged in to the Tx (transmit) port. Then, connect the other end of the patch cord to your network cabling patch panel, or directly to the network multimode fiber.
xcvrs_3-2002.fm Page 11 Tuesday, April 2, 2002 3:23 PM Troubleshooting The following problems may exist: The Link LED for the transceiver is not on, even though the transceiver is receiving power and the network cable is connected. Check the following: • Verify that the networked device at the other end of the cable is powered on and operating correctly. • Verify that the cables are connected correctly to the transceiver ports. See step 3 in the installation instructions.
xcvrs_3-2002.fm Page 12 Tuesday, April 2, 2002 3:23 PM The switch Link LED for the transceiver port is blinking. This condition occurs on the Series 2300 and 2500 switches. After installing the transceiver, these switches must be reset or rebooted to initialize the transceiver. The flashing LED tells you that the transceiver is not operational until the switch is reset or rebooted. The switch Fault LED and Link LED for the transceiver port are blinking.
