QSFP+ Port Connection (MPO Type Connector)
The switch is equipped with 6 QSFP+ (Quad SFP) ports. There are two types of QSFP+ ports:
• There are four 40G QSFP+ ports on the front panel which support 40G/per port or fan out
to 4x10G by using the fan out DAC cable described in the
“40-Gigabit ports”
section on

.
• The QSFP+ port on the rear panel provides only one channel of data in one pluggable
interface.
The QSFP+ ports are numbered and have corresponding QSFP+ port LEDs.
To install a QSFP+ module, do the following:
1
Slide the QSFP+ module into a QSFP+ port.
2
Push completely until the module locks into place.
