To remove a transceiver from the PTX10000 Series:
1. Place the antistatic bag or antistatic mat on a flat, stable surface.
2. Wrap and fasten one end of the ESD wrist strap around your bare wrist, and connect the other end of
the strap to the ESD point on the switch.
3. Label the cable connected to the transceiver so that you can reconnect it correctly.
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.
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.
CAUTION: Do not bend fiber-optic cables beyond their minimum bend radius. Bending
the cables beyond their minimum bend radius can damage the cables and cause
problems that are difficult to diagnose.
4. Remove the cable connected to the transceiver (see “Disconnecting a Fiber-Optic Cable from a
PTX10000 Router” on page 352). Cover the transceiver and the end of each fiber-optic cable connector
with a rubber safety cap immediately after disconnecting the fiber-optic cables.
5. Using your fingers, pull the ejector lever away from the transceiver to unlock the transceiver.
CAUTION: Before removing the transceiver, make sure you open the ejector lever
completely until you hear it click. This prevents damage to the transceiver.
6. Grasp the transceiver ejector lever and gently slide the transceiver approximately 0.5 in. (1.3 cm) straight
out of the port.
