Setting the Jumpers
Caution: Emulex LightPulse® HBAs contain electronic components that can be damaged
by static electricity through an electrostatic discharge (ESD) event. To prevent
ESD damage, maintain constant contact with any grounded metal surface. A
grounding wrist strap is useful for this purpose. Handle the card carefully at all
times and preferably by the edges. Avoid touching electronic components and
keep the card in the original packaging until you are ready for installation.
The device ID jumpers are used in custom applications. Do not change the jumper settings for a
standard Emulex installation.
LPe11002 Hardware Installation Manual Page 2
The host adapter has two six-post jumper blocks, one jumper block for each port, that control the host
adapter's device ID. The ID is selected by installing a jumper between posts 1 and 2, or 3 and 4, or 5
and 6. If no jumper is installed, the default device ID is 1AE5. Port 0 is the top transceiver, and port 1 is
the bottom transceiver.
Table 2: Jumper Settings (Port 0 and Port 1)
PCI Identifier P0_JX (Port 0) P1_JX (Port 1)
FE00 1–2 1–2
FE01 3–4 3–4
1AE5* 5–6 5–6
Note: * Without a jumper, the HBA reports a device ID of 1AE5. Most software drivers
require a PCI device ID of FE00 to properly identify and control the HBA. Do not
attempt to operate the HBA with the PCI device ID set to 1AE5 unless recommended
by the driver installation instructions.
Figure 1: The LPe11002 Jumper Settings
Installing the Host Bus Adapter
To install the HBA:
1. Each HBA is shipped with a unique 64-bit identifier called the IEEE address. The FC industry
uses a World Wide Name (WWN) derived from the IEEE address, and this number is needed for
FC connectivity. Since this adapter has two ports, there are two IEEE addresses. The IEEE
address is used when configuring your system. The serial number is used when communicating
with Emulex. All numbers are clearly marked on the board. We recommend that you record
these numbers before installation.
2. Turn off and unplug the computer.
LPe11002 Hardware Installation Manual Page 3
3. Remove the computer case.
Note: For best I/O performance, place the adapter into an empty PCIe x4 or higher slot.
PCIe slots are shorter than standard PCI 64-bit slots. Do not attempt to plug the
adapter into a standard PCI slot.
4. Remove the blank panel from an empty PCIe bus slot. Follow steps 5
they are different sizes. Otherwise, skip to step 9.
Note: The HBA comes with a standard PCI bracket installed. A low-profile bracket is
included in the box with the HBA. The low-profile mounting bracket is shorter than
the standard bracket; approximately 3.11 in. (7.9 cm) compared to 4.75 in. (12.06 cm)
long.
5. Remove the mounting bracket screws from the top of the HBA.
Figure 2: Removing the Bracket
6. Remove the bracket and store it for future use.
7. Align the new mounting bracket tabs with the holes in the HBA.
–8 to change the bracket if
Note: Be careful not to push the bracket past the transceiver housing's grounding tabs.
Make sure the light emitting diodes (LEDs) are properly aligned with the holes
in the bracket.
8. Replace the screws that attach the HBA to the bracket.
9. Insert the HBA into the empty x4 or higher PCIe bus slot. Press firmly until the adapter is seated.
10. Secure the HBA's mounting bracket to the case with the panel screw or clip.
11. Replace the computer case and tighten case screws.
The HBA is now installed in the PC and is ready for media attachment.

Laser Safety Notice
This laser safety information contains certification and product information covering laser products
known as optical small form factor transceivers incorporated in Emulex LightPulse host adapters. The
small form factor transceiver is the primary cable connection mechanism for any optical port on the host
adapter. This data is not intended to be a replacement for any safety regulations and standards; relevant
safety documents should always be consulted if necessary. Contact Emulex Corporation with any
questions or concerns about laser safety.
Certification and Classification
The LPe11000, LPe11002 and LPe1150 host adapters may contain a laser product known as a small
form factor transceiver. This transceiver provides the physical connection to the optical cable, and its
LC-style connector extends through the mounting bracket. In turn, the host adapter can be inserted into
any host system's appropriate PCI/PCI-X expansion slot.
In the United States, all optical small form factor transceivers sold by Emulex are certified as Class 1
laser products that conform to the requirements contained in the Department of Health and Human
Services (DHHS) regulation 21 CFR subchapter J. The certification is indicated by a label located on the
optical small form factor transceiver.
In Europe, all optical small form factor transceivers sold by Emulex are certified as Class 1 laser
component assemblies that conform to the requirements contained in the CENELEC (European
Committee for Electrotechnical Standardization) standard EN60825-1:1994 (including amendment 11)
and EN60825-2:1994. Small form factor transceivers are certified by a recognized European testing
agency and have appropriate markings on the assembly. The DHHS conformity label and European
conformity mark will not be visible externally once the optical small form factor transceiver is connected
to or inserted in the host adapter and the adapter is installed into a system.
Labeling Requirements
No caution or danger labels are required for use of the small form factor transceiver since they are Class
1 laser component assembly. In the U.S., the only laser safety label required is the DHHS certification
label that already appears on the small form factor transceiver. In Europe, the EN60825-1/EN60825-2
standards require that the system-level product has a Class 1 information label permanently attached
and clearly visible whenever access to the GLM, GBIC, 1x9 and small form factor transceiver optical port
is possible. Each Class 1 product shall have affixed an explanatory label bearing the words:
LPe11002 Hardware Installation Manual Page 12
Alternatively, at the discretion of the manufacturer, the same statement may be included in user
information. If a label is used, an example of the IEC Class 1 information label that is suitable for most
European countries is shown below. The label consists of black printing on a white background.
Languages represented on this label are English, German, Finnish and French, and they represent the
minimum set for acceptance of a Class 1 product in most European countries.
Product Information
Small Form Factor Transceiver
The small form factor transceiver is an integrated duplex data link for bi-directional communications over
multimode or single mode optical fiber. Each small form factor transceiver consists of a transmitter and
receiver optical subassembly. The transmitter subassembly contains a semiconductor laser emitting in
the wavelength range of 770 to 860 nanometers for shortwave length small form factor transceivers and
1270 to 1355 nanometers for long wavelength small form factor transceivers. For non-OFC links, the
optical power from the laser transmitter is controlled and maintained at a lower power level. The power
emitted from either an open fiber or open laser transmitter is guaranteed to be below the Class 1 limit.
Class 1 laser products are not considered hazardous. No user maintenance, service operations or
adjustments can be performed the small form factor transceiver.
Usage Restrictions
Failure to comply with these usage restrictions may result in incorrect operation of the system and could
possible lead to points of access that may emit laser radiation levels above the Class 1 limits established
in the U. S. by the DHHS and within Europe by EN60825-1/EN60825-2.
Short wavelength and long wavelength small form factor transceivers allow normal data transmission on
the optical link when they are connected to another compatible laser product. Short wavelength and long
wavelength small form factor transceivers embedded in Emulex host adapter are non-OFC. For nonOFC links, a compatible laser device must be non-OFC and certified as a Class 1 laser product.
Any system level product that incorporates the small form factor transceivers must provide power supply
protection that guarantees a voltage of 5.0 volts or less at the small form factor transceivers. The
functional power supply range of the small form factor transceivers product is specified as 3.135 to
3.465V typically. Operation outside of this range may degrade the performance and lifetime of the
transceiver. The transceiver will remain operational with laser emissions below Class 1 limits provided
the power supply level at the adapter remains at or below 5.0 volts. If the power supply level rises above
5.0 volts, the small form factor transceiver cannot be guaranteed to operate correctly and could result in
laser emissions that may exceed Class 1 limits.
System Level Certification
All host adapters containing embedded small form factor transceivers are certified as Class 1 laser
products within the U.S. and Class 1 laser component assemblies outside of the U.S. Manufacturers of
products properly incorporating the small form factor transceiver do not need to recertify their product for
laser safety. The procedure for full system certification is therefore identical to that used for any other
electronic system. When applying for system level certification to electronic standards such as IEC950,
the regulatory engineers may want to see the DHHS and European conformity labeling on the small form
LPe11002 Hardware Installation Manual Page 13
factor transceiver, and the system level documentation and labeling. Copies of the certificate of
conformity for any small form factor transceiver sold by Emulex can be obtained upon request from
Emulex Corporation, Costa Mesa.
