2) INSTALL STANDALONE MODULE AND CONNECT CABLES
The XGT+ module must be installed using the following chassis congurations/guidelines:
19-Module High Airow Chassis 8201-x (AC) or 8207-x (DC). Each 120W High Airow power
supply can support up to 6 iConverter modules installed in the chassis, and three of the six
modules can be XGT+. The XGT+ modules must be installed directly in front of the installed
High Airow power supply and the slot on the right side of the installed XGT+ module must
be empty. All empty slots must have a blank panel installed. The other iConverter modules
can be installed anywhere in the chassis.
A maximum of nine XGT+ modules can be installed in a 19-Module High Airow Chassis. All
empty slots must have a blank panel installed.
5-Module High Airow Chassis 8221-x (AC) or 8227-x (DC). An XGT+ module can be installed
in all slots. All empty slots must have a blank panel installed.
2-Module High Airow Chassis 8232-1 (AC) or 8238-1 (DC). Only one XGT+ can be installed
in the chassis. The other slot can have another iConverter module installed (NMM2, 10/100M2,
etc). If the slot is empty, it must have a blank panel installed.
1-Module Chassis is not supported with the XGT+ (recommend using a standalone model).
Refer to the iConverter XG, XG+ and XGT+ Chassis Installation Guidelines for Airow and
Cooling Application Note 002-A0006 for more detailed information.
The iConverter XGT+ can be used in a managed conguration by installing a Management
Module (such as an iConverter NMM2 or 10/100M2) that provides monitoring, conguration
and trap notication in the same chassis.
a. Carefully slide the XGT+ module into an open slot in the chassis. Align the module with
the installation guides and ensure that the module is rmly seated against the backplane.
Secure the module by fastening the front panel thumbscrew (push in and turn clockwise
to tighten) to the chassis front. Verify the “Pwr” LED is ON (indicating the chassis is
powered).
Caution: Use proper ESD protection to reduce the risk of damage to your equipment.
b. Insert the appropriate 10G SFP+ or XFP transceiver (depending on the model of the
module) into Port 1 receptacle on the XGT+. The release latch of the transceiver must
be in the closed position before insertion.
NOTE: The release latch of the transceiver must be in the closed position before insertion.
c. When using copper CX4 XFP, connect the cable between the converter and external
device using the recommended copper CX4 cable.
d. Connect the RJ-45 port via a CAT 6A or better cable to a 10GBASE-T Ethernet device.

3) VERIFY OPERATION
Once the module has been installed and congured per steps 1 and 2, verify the module is
operational by viewing the LED indicators.
