6. Operating Instructions

Once installed and connected, the Lg-2.5ge-sfp module operates automatically:

• The module will establish a 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet link with the connected device, provided both devices support 2.5G speeds.
• Link/Activity LEDs on the host device (if available) will indicate connection status and data transmission.
• Ensure that the connected Ethernet cable is rated for 2.5G speeds (CAT5e or CAT6 recommended) to achieve optimal performance.

7. Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your SFP module, follow these maintenance guidelines:

• Cleaning: Use a soft, dry, lint-free cloth to gently wipe the exterior of the module if it becomes dusty. Do not use liquid cleaners or solvents.
• Handling: Always handle the module by its casing. Avoid touching the electrical contacts or the RJ45 port directly.
• Environment: Store and operate the module within its specified temperature and humidity ranges. Keep it away from sources of strong electromagnetic interference.
• Inspection: Periodically inspect the RJ45 port and SFP connector for any signs of damage or debris.
