Handling Pluggable Transceivers
When you handle a transceiver, observe these guidelines:
l Handle all pluggable transceivers as you would any electrostatic-sensitive devices.
l Do not remove a pluggable transceiver from its static-protective package until you are
ready to install it.
l Transport and store a pluggable transceiver, even temporarily, in its original static-
protective package and shipping box.
l Do not touch any of the pins, host connector, or components of a pluggable
transceiver.
l The optical ports of a pluggable transceiver ship with a dust plug to prevent impurities.
Always keep the dust plug in the receptacles as long as the pluggable transceiver is
stored or fiber-optic cables are not plugged in.
l When you remove the dust plug to connect a fiber cable, store it in a separate
resealable container for future use.
l Do not remove and insert a pluggable transceiver module more often than is
necessary. Repeated removals and insertions of a pluggable transceiver module can
shorten its useful life.
l Do not dispose of a waste pluggable transceiver with the normal trash because it is an
electronic product.
Do not disassemble or repair pluggable transceivers under any
circumstances. Only the manufacturer should repair them and make
all adjustments.
Do not store pluggable transceivers in an area where:
l The temperature exceeds the maximum rating;
l There is too much moisture or dampness;
l There is exposure to acidic or corrosive gases; or
l Other extreme conditions exist.
Failure, overheating, or fire can occur.
