How to install Accortec 10309-AX SFP+ Module

Installing the Accortec 10309-AX SFP+ Module is a straightforward process designed to minimize downtime and ensure proper alignment with your existing network hardware. Follow these general steps to install the module correctly, while always consulting your device’s specific installation guide for any vendor-specific procedures or prerequisites.

• Prepare and power down: Power down the host device or ensure the SFP+ slot is in a safe state per your equipment policy. Ground yourself to prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD) before handling the module.
• Inspect and align: Remove the packaging and inspect the 10309-AX for any visible damage. Align the module with the SFP+ slot on the device, ensuring the cage and connector alignments match.
• Insert with care: Gently insert the module into the slot until it is seated flush and you hear a soft click. Avoid forcing the module, as misalignment can damage the connector.
• Attach fiber and verify cable routing: Connect the correct LC duplex fiber cable to the module, ensuring you are using the appropriate fiber type for your link (single-mode or multi-mode) and that the routing minimizes strain or bending radius.
• Power up and check: Restore power to the device and verify link status through the device management interface. Use the module’s diagnostic data to confirm optical power levels are within expected ranges and that the link is active.
