Safety Notices
The fiber optic SFP transceiver modules are equipped with a Class 1 laser, which
emits invisible radiation. Read the following safety warnings carefully.
Class 1 Laser Product
Complies with FDA Regulation 21 CFR 1040.10 and 1040.11
Class 1 radiation is present when the device or system is powered
up. Do not look directly into a laser aperture, as prolonged exposure
may cause eye damage.
Only trained and qualified personnel should be allowed to install or
replace these SFP modules

Overview
Thank you for purchasing an IFS SFP transceiver. The IFS SFP transceiver can
be installed into any IFS network equipment with a 100Base-FX or 1000BaseSX/LX mini-GBIC interface. This user guide provides an overview of the various
IFS SFPs (also known as mini-GBIC) transceiver modules available from
Interlogix. This user guide also provides instructions for installing, connecting and
removing these transceivers. These SFP transceiver modules are hot-pluggable,
which means you can insert and remove these modules into any IFS network
equipment with a mini-GBIC port without interrupting the host system. The IFS
SFP line also features a selection of environmentally hardened SFPs designed
for operating in environments from -40~75 degrees Celsius.

Installing an IFS SFP Module
This section describes how to insert an IFS SFP transceiver into a mini-GBIC
slot.
The IFS SFP transceivers are hot-pluggable and hot-swappable. You can insert
and remove an IFS SFP transceiver in any IFS network equipment with a miniGBIC port without having to power down the switch or media converter. As
shown in Figure 1.
Figure 1: Inserting an IFS SFP tranceiver
Install the IFS SFP into an IFS network switch or media converter before
connecting a cable coming from another switch, workstation or media converter.
1. Make sure both pieces of network equipment that you are connecting
together are using the same media type SFP. For example: 100Base-FX to
100Base-FX or 1000Base-SX to 1000Base-SX.
2. Check to make sure that the fiber-optic cable type matches the SFP
transceiver model.
• S20 Series and S25 Series optics operate with multimode OM1, OM2
or OM3 fiber. LC type fiber connectors are required.
• S30 Series and S35 Series optics operate with single mode fiber. LC
type fiber connectors are required.
Connecting the fiber cable
1. Insert the duplex LC connector from the network fiber cable into the SFP
transceiver.
IFS SFP Tranceivers User Manual 3
2. Connect the other end of the cable to a device – i.e. switches with an SFP
installed, fiber NIC on a workstation or a Media Converter.
3. Check the LNK/ACT LED of the SFP slot of the switch / converter. Ensure
that the SFP transceiver is operating correctly.
4. Check the link mode of the SFP port to see if there is any link failure. With
some fiber-NICs or Media Converters, setting the link mode to “1000 Force”
or “100 Force” may be needed for proper operation.
Removing the SFP transceiver
1. Make sure there is no network activity by consulting with a network
administrator before removing the SFP or use the switch or media converters
management interface (if available) to disable the port in advance.
2. Gently remove the fiber optic cable connector.
3. Flip the wire handle of the SFP module out to a horizontal position.
4. Pull out the SFP module gently out of the mini-GIBIC slot with the wire
handle.

Caution: Never pull out the SFP transceiver module without using the pull
handle or the push bolts on the module. Directly pulling out the SFP module with
force could damage the SFP module and mini-GIBIC slot of the network device.
