Before you begin to disconnect a fiber-optic cable from an optical transceiver, ensure that you have taken
the necessary precautions for safe handling of lasers. See “Laser and LED Safety Guidelines and Warnings”
on page 755.
Ensure that you have the following parts and tools available:
•
A rubber safety cap to cover the transceiver
•
A rubber safety cap to cover the fiber-optic cable connector
To disconnect a fiber-optic cable from an optical transceiver installed in the device:
1. Disable the port in which the transceiver is installed by issuing the following command:
[edit interfaces]
user@device# set interface-name disable
WARNING: Do not look directly into a fiber-optic transceiver or into the ends
of fiber-optic cables. Fiber-optic transceivers and fiber-optic cables connected
to transceivers emit laser light that can damage your eyes.
2. Carefully unplug the fiber-optic cable connector from the transceiver.
3. Cover the transceiver with a rubber safety cap.
WARNING: Do not leave a fiber-optic transceiver uncovered except when
inserting or removing a cable. The rubber safety cap keeps the port clean and
prevents accidental exposure to laser light.
4. Cover the fiber-optic cable connector with the rubber safety cap.
Maintaining Fiber-Optic Cables
Fiber-optic cables connect to optical transceivers that are installed in Juniper Networks devices.
