Installing AT-SP10TW Cables in the AT-SBx81XS6 Line Card
This procedure explains how to connect AT-SP10TW Cables to the AT-
SBx81XS6 Line Card. The cables may be used in place of fiber optic
cables and transceivers for 10 Gbps links of up to 7 meters.
Note
The AT-SP10TW Cable is supported in the AT-SBx81XS6 and AT-
SBx81XS16 Line Cards. It is not supported in the AT-SBx81GS24a
Line Card or AT-SBx81CFC960 Controller Fabric Card.
To install the AT-SP10TW Cable, perform the following procedure:
1. Remove the dust plug from an SFP+ slot on the line card. You may
install AT-SP10TW Cables into any of the slots on the line card. Refer
to Figure 97.
Figure 97. Removing the Dust Cover From an SFP+ Slot in the AT-
SBx81XS6 Line Card
Note
Do not remove the dust plug from the SFP+ slot if you are not
installing the transceiver at this time. The dust plug protects the line
card from dust contamination.
2. Orient the connector on the AT-SP10TW cable so that the release tab
is on top, as shown in Figure 98 on page 157.
