5. To remove an SFP, SFP+, XFP, or a QSFP+ transceiver:
a. By using your fingers, pull open the ejector lever on the transceiver to unlock the

0.5 in. (1.3 cm) straight out of the port.
CAUTION: To prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage to the
transceiver, do not touch the connector pins at the end of the
transceiver.
