Figure 16: Install an SFP Module into an SFP Module Slot
Do not remove the dust plugs from the fiber-optic SFP module port or the rubber caps from the
fiber-optic cable until you are ready to connect the cable. The plugs and caps protect the SFP
module ports and cables from contamination and ambient light. Store the dust plugs for later use.
Caution
5. Insert the cable connector into the SFP module.
Remove SFP Modules
To remove an SFP module from a module receptacle, follow these steps:
1. Attach an ESD-preventive wrist strap to your wrist and to a bare metal surface on the chassis.
2. Disconnect the cable from the SFP module, and insert a dust plug into the cable end.
For reattachment, note which cable connector plug is transmit (TX) and which is receive (RX).
Tip
3. Unlock and remove the SFP module, as shown in the following figure.
If the module has a bale-clasp latch, pull the bale out and down to eject the module. If the bale-clasp latch
is obstructed and you cannot use your index finger to open it, use a small, flat-blade screwdriver or other
long, narrow instrument to open the bale-clasp latch.
