Figure 45: Removing the OSFP Transceiver Module
Step 4 Slide the transceiver out of the cage port or socket.
Step 5 Place the transceiver module into an antistatic bag.
Connect Interface Ports
You can connect optical interface ports with other devices for network connectivity.
Connect a Fiber-Optic Port to the Network
Some transceivers work with fiber-optic cables that you attach to the transceivers and other transceivers work
with pre-attached copper cables. You must install a transceiver in the port before installing the fiber-optic
cable in the transceiver.
Removing and installing a transceiver can shorten its useful life. Do not remove and insert transceivers any
more than is absolutely necessary. We recommend that you disconnect cables before installing or removing
transceivers to prevent damage to the cable or transceiver.
