6.6.1 Removing an XFP Module from a 4:1 10G Muxponder Unit
This procedure lists the steps for removing an XFP module from an IFMA-QMC1
(muxponder) plug-in unit.
Observe the following precautions when removing and installing all plug-in units:
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.
Perform the following steps to remove the XFP module:
1 Locate the muxponder plug-in unit that contains the XFP module to be removed.
