Before proceeding wit h the installation, make sure that you are working in an ESD-safe
environment or wearing an ESD wrist strap or ESD shoes.
1. Remove the QSFP+ transceiver module from its protective packaging. Make sure that it is
the correct model and build for your system.
2. If you are using an optical QSFP+ transceiver, remove the optical bore dust plug and set it
aside.

carefully into the socket until the QSFP+ transceiver connects with the socket electrical

For QSFP+ transceivers with a pull-tab, make sure that the identifier label is on top.
