When installing an SFP56, SFP28, SFP10, and SFP module, you should hear a click as the triangular pin on
the bottom of the SFP56, SFP28, SFP10, and SFP module snaps into the hole in the receptacle. This click
indicates that the module is correctly seated and secured in the receptacle. Verify that the SFP56, SFP28,
SFP10, and SFP modules are completely seated and secured in their assigned receptacles on the line card by
firmly pushing on each SFP56, SFP28, SFP10, and SFP module.
