Removing an LC-LC cable from an LC-SC cable adapter
Complete the following steps to remove an LC-LC cable from an LC-SC cable
adapter:
Attention: To avoid damaging the LC-LC cable, make sure you press and hold
the lever to release the latches before you remove the cable from an LC-SC cable
adapter. Ensure that both levers are in the released position when removing the
cable. When removing the cable from the SFP module, make sure you do not grasp
the SFP module plastic tab.
1. On the end of the cable that connects into the LC connector end of the LC-SC
cable adapter, press down and hold the lever to release the latches. Figure 39
shows the location of the lever and latches.
2. Carefully pull on the connector to remove it. Make sure you grasp the connector
and not the cable when removing the LC-LC cable from the LC-SC cable
adapter as shown in Figure 40.
3. Replace the protective caps on the cable ends.
