Inserting and Removing a Transceiver
Gigabit Ethernet ports require a gigabit interface converter (GBIC), a small form-factor pluggable (SFP),
or a 10-Gbps SFP (XFP) transceiver in each port; an OC-192c/STM-64c port also requires an XFP
transceiver. Table 6-2 lists the transceiver type for each traffic card.
To insert or remove a transceiver of any type, perform the appropriate procedure in the following sections;
these procedures are referenced in the installation and removal procedures for transceivers throughout this
chapter:
