4.
Restore the removed transceiver’s latch to an upright position and replace the dust plug that originally shipped with
the transceiver. Place the transceiver in an ESD shielded bag and set aside.
Tip:
Leave the dust plug in the replacement transceiver for Step 5 to reduce possibility of damaging the
transceiver / socket.
5.
With the replacement transceiver’s latch in the up (locked) position, gently insert the transceiver straight into the
transceiver socket until resistance is felt (an audible click will be heard when it is fully seated).
6.
Verify proper seating by gently pulling on the transceiver with the latch in the locked position.
7.
Remove the dust plug and save for future use.
8.
Attach the fiber cable (see “Tips for Fiber Optic Connections” on page 139).
9.
Test the signal path.
