CAUTION: ESD damage can occur if components are mishandled. Always wear an ESD-preventive wrist or heel ground strap when
handling the EMS100G-32 and its components.
WARNING: When working with optical fibers, follow all warning labels and always wear eye protection. Never look directly into the
end of a terminated or unterminated fiber or connector as it may cause eye damage!
1. Position the optic so it is in the correct position. The optic has a key that prevents it from being inserted incorrectly.
2. Insert the optic into the port until it gently snaps into place.
NOTE: When you cable the ports, be sure not to interfere with the airflow from the small vent holes above and below the ports.
5.6 OPTICS REMOVAL
Remove an optic by pushing the tab on the optic and sliding the optic from the port.
CAUTION: When removing optics with direct attach cables (DACs) from the port, pull the release tab firmly and steadily. Before
pulling the release tab, you may need to gently push the optic into the port to ensure it is seated properly. Do not jerk or tug
repeatedly on the tab.
