The tenant renovation project of an office building in the High-tech Park recently upgraded the floor access switches. The brands of equipment on the network are mixed, and the compatibility of optical modules once became a bottleneck in the construction period. EB-LINK delivers a batch of SFP optical modules by coding according to the equipment brand, and on-site installation and debugging can be completed within a few days.

Mixing fabrics from multiple brands is the norm in renovation projects

Tenant-side access switches are often added in batches. Cisco, Huawei, H3C, and Ruijie models are on the network at the same time. When a general module is plugged in, a port exception may be reported or DDM information cannot be read. The most troublesome thing this time is the coexistence of old and new switches on the same layer. The same module behaves inconsistently when plugged into different devices, making on-site troubleshooting very time-consuming. Before this shipment, a complete equipment list was collected, coded by brand and floor batch number marked. The construction team installed the equipment according to the floor number, and no longer returned or replaced equipment one by one through trial and error.

Gigabit modules are seated according to fiber core numbers

The existing jumpers between weak current rooms are mainly single-mode and used for links.SFP Gigabit single mode dual fiber 10KM optical module; Some multi-mode links are reserved for short-distance cross-connection in the equipment room, corresponding toSFP Gigabit Multimode Dual Fiber Optical Module. The two types of modules are divided into boxes according to the link accounts of each floor, and a port comparison table is included with the goods.

Only three steps are required on site

• Unpack and plug it in directly to confirm that the port indicator light is normal.
• Randomly test one link on each floor and record the received light power for future reference.
• A small amount of spare parts are kept in the property computer room and entered into the spare parts list.

At present, this batch of modules has all been activated on the computer, and no compatibility returns have occurred. The correspondence between the module batch number and the floor has been entered into the property ledger, and future replenishment can be renewed according to the batch.
