and save the plug for future use.
Install a GBIC with a Handle
Step 1 Remove the GBIC from its protective packaging.
Step 2 Check the label to verify that the GBIC is the correct type (SX, LX, or ZX) for your network.
Step 3 Verify that you are installing compatible GBICs; for example, SX to SX, LX to LX, or ZX to ZX.
Step 4 Remove the protective plug from the SC-type connector.
Step 5 Grip the sides of the GBIC with your thumb and forefinger and insert the GBIC into the slot on the
E1000-2-G or G-Series card.
Note GBICs are keyed to prevent incorrect installation.
Step 6 Lock the GBIC into place by closing the handle down. The handle is in the correct closed position when
it does not obstruct access to SC-type connector.
