2.5.7. Removing an SFP Module
NOTE: It is strongly recommended that SFP modules are not installed or removed
with fiber-optic cables attached. Doing so may cause damage to the cables, the
connectors, or the optical interfaces in the SFP module. Disconnect all cables
before removing or installing SFP modules.
1. Pull the bale-clasp latch out and down to eject the module. If the latch is obstructed and you are
not able to release the clasp, use a small flat-blade screwdriver or other narrow flat instrument
to open the bale-clasp latch.
2. Grasp the SFP module between your thumb and index finger and carefully remove the SFP
from its slot.
3. Place the removed SFP module into an anti-static bag, or other ESD protective container.

ELECTRICAL INPUT AND OUTPUT CONNECTIONS
2.6.1. Rear Panel BNC Connections
The BNC’s on the rear of the 3505FR-BNC are fixed and correspond to a particular SFP module. These
BNC connectors are agile and thus configured as inputs or outputs. A BNC will become an electrical
input if its corresponding SFP spigot is an optical transmitter (Electrical to Optical converter).
Conversely a BNC will become an electrical output if its corresponding SFP spigot is an optical receiver
(Optical to Electrical converter).
