3. Insert the cable connector into the optical transceiver (see Figure 42 on page 116).

4. Secure the cables so that they do not support their own weight. Place excess cable out of the way in
a neatly coiled loop. Placing fasteners on a loop helps cables maintain their shape.
CAUTION: Do not bend fiber-optic cables beyond their minimum bend radius.
An arc smaller than a few inches in diameter can damage the cables and cause
problems that are difficult to diagnose.
Do not let fiber-optic cables hang free from the connector. Do not allow fastened
loops of cables to dangle, which stresses the cables at the fastening point.

Small form-factor pluggable plus transceivers (SFP+) are enhanced SFP transceivers that provides support
for data rates of up to 10 Gbps for fiber-optic or copper interfaces. SFP+ transceivers are hot-removable
and hot-insertable field-replaceable units (FRUs): You can remove and replace them without powering off
the device or disrupting device functions.
