Use appropriate ESD procedures when inserting the transceiver. Avoid touching the contacts at the rear, and
keep the contacts and ports free of dust and dirt. Keep unused transceivers in the ESD packing that they were
shipped in. The following figure shows a sample SFP transceiver.

Although non-Cisco SFPs are allowed, we do not recommend using them because they have not been tested
and validated by Cisco. Cisco TAC may refuse support for any interoperability problems that result from
using an untested third-party SFP transceiver.
Caution
The following table lists the Cisco supported transceivers.
