NOTE
32Gb/s and 64Gb/s SFP+ transceivers have pull tabs instead of bails. Always use the pull tab to insert or
remove the SFP+ transceivers, since the transceiver might be hot.
1. Remove any cables that are inserted into the transceiver.
2. Grasp the SFP+ transceiver pull tab and pull the tab straight out.
NOTE
Grasp the tab near the body of the transceiver to reduce the chances of bending the pull tab. Avoid touching
the transceiver because it may be hot.
3. To insert the replacement transceiver, use the pull tab on the SFP+ transceiver to carefully push the transceiver into
the port.
Transceivers are keyed so that they can be inserted only with the correct orientation. If a transceiver does not slide in
easily, ensure that it is correctly oriented.
NOTE
Each SFP+ transceiver has a 10-pad gold-plated PCB-edge connector on the bottom. The correct position
to insert an SFP+ transceiver into the upper row of ports is with the gold edge down. The correct position to
insert an SFP+ transceiver into the lower row of ports is with the gold edge up.
