IMPORTANT

The SBC 5100, SBC 5110, SBC 5200, and SBC 5210 platforms are no longer supported beginning with the SBC Core 10.0.0R0 release. This release supports SBC 5400/7000/SWe platforms. Contact Ribbon Sales for upgrade information.

Ribbon-provided SFP modules must be used to guarantee proper operation of the external ports. Failure to follow this recommendation may cause permanent damage to the system.

Overview

The SBC 5000 series supports the following Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP) transceivers in all the Media and HA ports. The SFPs are Customer Replaceable Units (CRU).

SFP Ports

Parts and Tools Required

  • Electrostatic discharge (ESD) strap
  • Replacement SFP transceivers.

To prevent damage from electrostatic discharge, an ESD strap is provided in the accessory kit. See Connecting Electrostatic Discharge Wrist Strap to install it.

Replacing the SFP

Perform the following procedure to replace the SFP:

  1. Attach an ESD wrist strap using the ESD grounding point on the rear panel of the chassis (see Connecting Electrostatic Discharge Wrist Strap for details).

  2. Disconnect the fiber optic and/or Cat 5 cables, as appropriate, from media ports (Media 0-4) and HA ports (HA 0-1).

  3. Disengage the SFP transceiver from SBC 5000 series. The method used to disengage the SFP transceiver will vary according to the manufacturer. For example, hold the wire latch and move it downwards to the horizontal position and pull it outwards, as shown below.

    The SBC 5200 chassis contains four media ports and the SBC 5100 chassis two media ports.

    Removing SFP

    Inserting SFP

  4. Insert the Ribbon-approved SFP transceiver into the desired socket and ensure that the latch mechanism engages.

  5. Reconnect the fiber optic and/or Cat 5 cables, as appropriate, to media and HA ports.
  6. Verify LEDs above the part are flashing indicating link status and data activity.
  7. Verify port functionality using the application.

CRU Storage

All SBC 5000 series CRUs are shipped in electrostatic discharge bags and should be handled using appropriate ESD precautions.

The storage environment for these CRUs are:

  • Humidity must be less than 95% (non-condensing).
  • Temperature must be between -40C and +70C.


The ESD Susceptibility symbol warns of the presence of Ribbon devices susceptible to electrostatic discharge. Do not handle equipment without wearing a properly grounded ESD wrist strap.
