CAUTION: The fiber optic ports contain a Class 1 laser device. When the ports are disconnected, always cover them with the provided plug. If an abnormal fault occurs, skin or eye damage may result if in close proximity to the exposed ports. |
Remove and save the fiber optic connector cover. Insert a fiber optic cable into the ports on the network adapter bracket as shown.
Most connectors and ports are keyed for proper orientation. If the cable you are using is not keyed, check to be sure the connector is oriented properly (transmit port connected to receive port on the link partner, and vice versa).
All Intel fiber-based adapters with SC connectors support the 1000Base-SX connectivity standard. The connection requirements are as follows:
The adapter must be connected to a compatible link partner, such as an IEEE 802.3z-compliant gigabit switch, which is operating at the same laser wavelength as the adapter. |
