GBIC Transceiver Installation Guide 7
If the system detects a transceiver that 3Com does not support, it sets the
port type to
Unqualified GBIC,
displays a short description,
(Unappr.GBIC)
,
and captures the error in the event log.
WARNING
The GBIC in Port xx is NOT approved by 3Com & may violate electromagnetic emission
or safety requirements for your country. Refer to 3Com's web page
(www.3com.com/gigabit_ethernet/gbics) for our current approved list.
The following informational message is shown in the event log:
Unqualified GBIC: Unqualified vendor part number
Corrective action
Although this report does not necessarily indicate that the GBIC
transceiver will not function properly with the system, it does indicate
that 3Com has not qualified the transceiver and does not support it.
