Juniper MX10004 - Disconnect a Fiber-Optic Cable from an Optical Transceiver on an MX10004 Router

CAUTION: Do not let ber-opc cables hang free from the connector. Do not allow
fastened loops of cables to dangle, which stresses the cables at the fastening point.
Disconnect a Fiber-Opc Cable from an Opcal Transceiver on an
MX10004 Router
Before you disconnect a ber-opc cable from an opcal transceiver installed in an MX10004 router,
ensure that you have taken the necessary precauons for safe handling of lasers (see "Laser and LED
Safety Guidelines and Warnings" on page 253).
Ensure that you have the following parts and tools available:
• Rubber safety cap to cover the transceiver
• Rubber safety cap to cover the ber-opc cable connector
To disconnect a ber-opc cable from an opcal transceiver on an MX10004 router:
1. (Recommended) Disable the port in which the transceiver is installed by including the disable
statement at the [edit interfaces] hierarchy level for the specic interface.
LASER WARNING: Do not look directly into a ber-opc transceiver or into the ends
of ber-opc cables. Fiber-opc transceivers and ber-opc cables connected to
transceivers emit laser light that can damage your eyes.
LASER WARNING: Do not stare into the laser beam or view it directly with opcal
instruments even if the interface has been disabled.
2. Carefully unplug the ber-opc cable connector from the transceiver.
3. Cover the transceiver with a rubber safety cap.
LASER WARNING: Do not leave a ber-opc transceiver uncovered except when
inserng or removing a cable. The rubber safety cap keeps the port clean and prevents
accidental exposure to laser light.
