Remove a fiber optic module from an SFP slot.
1. Put on the ESD wrist strap and ground yourself by attaching the clip end to a metal surface
(such as an equipment rack).
2. Disconnect the fiber cable connector from the port connector.
3. Pull the fiber optic module out of the port by pulling the bail latch forward, away from the front

5. Store the fiber optic module in a safe, static-free place or in an anti-static bag.
