CAUTION: Before you slide the transceiver into the port, ensure that the transceiver
is aligned correctly. Misalignment might cause the pins to bend, making the
transceiver unusable.
6. Slide the transceiver in gently until it is fully seated. If you are installing a CFP transceiver, tighten the
captive screws on the transceiver by using your fingers.
7. Remove the rubber safety cap when you are ready to connect the cable to the transceiver.
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.
