Changing the SFP Monitor Port Connector
You have the option to change the interface on the Monitor Port by changing
the small form-factor plug (SFP) on the Monitor Port. You can order conver-
sion kits which include the singlemode ber, multimode ber, GigaBit copper
SFP and appropriate cable from Net Optics. For ordering information, see
Specications on page 9.
To change the SFP:
1. Remove the cable from the SFP on the Port Aggregator Tap.
2. Lower the wire clip to release the SFP connector.
3. With the clip on the lowered position, pull gently on the clip to free the
SFP.
4. Insert the new SFP until you hear it click into place.
5. Connect the cable supplied with the kit.
Connecting Power
The second power supply is available to support the ow of trafc to the
monitoring device, in the event that the rst power supply becomes unavail-
able. If the rst power supply is unavailable, the second power supply will
supply all power for the Tap. Even if no power is available to the passive Tap,
network trafc ows uninterrupted.
1. Supply power to the Tap via the two power connectors on the rear of the
unit. Two power supplies are included with the AC power models. The use
of the second redundant power supply is optional.
2. Verify that the Power LEDs illuminate. PWR 1 illuminates when the rst
power supply is in use, and PWR 2 illuminates when the second power
supply is in use. Both power supplies can be plugged into the Tap at the
same time.
