Time and Items Required

The installation or replacement procedure for one transceiver takes less than 5 minutes. Ensure that the following items are available:

• Required number of compatible power cables
• Required number of supported transceivers

  For current information on qualified transceivers supported by this device, refer to the "Fibre Channel Transceiver Platform Support Matrix" and applicable transceiver data sheets on www.broadcom.com.

  DANGER
  Use only optical transceivers that are qualified by Broadcom and comply with the FDA Class 1 radiation performance requirements defined in 21 CFR Subchapter I, and with IEC 60825 and EN60825. Optical products that do not comply with these standards might emit light that is hazardous to the eyes.
• Required number of compatible fiber-optic cables
• Optical transceiver extraction tool
  Note: Many switches, backbones, and directors come with a transceiver extraction tool and holster. The extraction tool is designed to remove transceivers from modules where the space is limited. If you did not receive this tool with your product, you can order it from IBM using part number XBR-48000-R0129.
