6.5.2 Installing an SFP Module in a Muxponder or Flexponder Unit
This procedure lists the steps for installing an SFP module in an IFMA-8TCx or
IFMA-GUC1 (muxponder) plug-in unit or an IFMA-BUC1 or IFMA-BXC1 (Flexponder)
plug-in unit.
Never look into the end of a fiber-optic cable. Permanent eye damage or blindness can
occur very quickly if the laser light is present. Follow local safety precautions regarding
fiber.
Never handle exposed fiber with bare hands or touch it to your body. A fiber fragment
could enter the skin and be very difficult to detect and remove. Follow local safety
precautions regarding fiber.
Do not remove the wrong fiber connections. Removing a fiber connection that is in use will
disrupt service.
