Installation Guide
Introduction
The HP ProCurve Gigabit Transceivers are used to provide 1000 Mbps
connections to other compatible network devices for the HP ProCurve
Switch 2424M Gigabit Stacking Module and other HP networking devices
that are designed to accept these transceivers. The transceivers are installed
into the transceiver slots of the HP networking device or device module.
This document describes how to install, verify, and troubleshoot the
following two HP ProCurve Gigabit Transceivers:
HP J4131A ProCurve Gigabit-SX Transceiver
HP J4132A ProCurve Gigabit-LX Transceiver
The Gigabit-SX transceiver complies with the 1000Base-SX standard and is
used with multimode fiber-optic cable. The Gigabit-LX transceiver complies
with the 1000Base-LX standard and is used with either single-mode or
multimode fiber-optic cable. For more information on the cables used with
these transceivers and the supported cable lengths, see page 4.
