Step 5
Find the physical location of the channel module that is to hold the
pluggable transceiver.
Step 6
Remove the pluggable transceiver from its static-protective packaging
and immediately place it on a grounded surface or an antistatic mat.
Step 7
Check and prepare the pluggable transceiver module as follows:
a) Verify that the pluggable transceiver is the correct one for your
network configuration (type, specifications). To quickly obtain the
adequate information, refer to the ADVA Optical Networking label
on the top of the transceiver module.
b) Inspect the transceiver visually for damage and impurities. If nec-
essary, use canned, dry, oil-free compressed air to blow off any
impurities. If the transceiver is damaged, do not install it.
c) Make sure that the optical port of the transceiver module is
equipped with a dust cover. If not, install one.
Step 8
Identify the interface cage (port) on the channel module where the
replacement transceiver will be installed.
Step 9
If installed, remove the dust plug from the corresponding interface
cage of the channel module and store it in a resealable container for
future use.
