7210 SAS-D CHASSIS INSTALLATION GUIDE Transceivers
Issue: 08 3HE 10087 AAAA TQZZA Edition 01 49
4.2 Installation Preparation
Clean the connector on the fiber cable before inserting it in to the SFP to prevent
transferring small particles and contaminating the transceiver. Do not interchange
SFPs from one port to another without first cleaning the connectors.
To clean the connector, you can either:
• Wipe the side and end of the ferrule with a lint-free alcohol-dampened cloth.
• Blow dry the ferrule with compressed air and inspect for lint. Do not insert the
compressed air nozzle into the receptacle when blowing out.
4.2.1 Locking and Release Mechanisms
Nokia SFPs can use different lock and release methods. Possible lock and release
mechanisms include:
• Locking handle—A locking handle (lever) in the front of the SFP that you
gently raise or lower to insert or remove from the port.
• Bail—A bar or wire latch in the front of the SFP that you pull down and
outward to release the module.
• Tabs on the sides of the SFP that you press inward to release the module.
