Removing and Installing SFP Modules
Step 6 Protect your line card by inserting clean SFP module cage covers into the optical module cage when
there is no SFP module installed.
Installing an Actuator Button SFP Module
To install this type of SFP module, follow these steps:
Step 1 Attach an ESD-preventive wrist or ankle strap and follow its instructions for use.
Step 2 Line up the SFP module with the port and slide it in until the actuator button clicks into place. (See
Figure 25.) Be sure not to press the actuator button as you insert the SFP module because you might
inadvertently disengage the SFP module from the port.
Figure 25 Installing an Actuator Button SFP Module
Note Verify that the SFP modules are completely seated and secured in their assigned receptacles on the line
card by firmly pushing on each SFP module. If the SFP module was not completely seated and secured
in the receptacle, you will hear a click as the triangular pin on the bottom of the SFP module snaps into
the hole in the receptacle.
Slide Tab SFP Module
The slide tab SFP module has a tab underneath the front of the SFP module that you use to disengage
the module from a port. (See Figure 26.)
