2. Disconnect the copper or fiber cable connector from the port connector.
3. Insert the protective covering into the port connectors.
FIGURE 58
Pull the copper or fiber optic module out of the port by pulling the bail latch forward, away from the front panel of
the module. This unlocks the module from the front panel. On 1000BaseSX ports, the bail latch is enclosed in a black sleeve,
and on 1000BaseLX ports, the bail latch is enclosed in a blue sleeve.

Grasping the bail latch, pull the copper or fiber optic module out of the port.
4. Store the copper or fiber optic module in a safe, static-free place or in an anti-static bag.
5. Install a new copper or fiber optic module in the port. For information about performing this task, refer to
Installing a new Copper or fiber optic module
You must install a fiber optic module (SFP, SFP+, or XFP transceiver) in each Gigabit Ethernet and 10-Gigabit Ethernet fiber port you
want to use.
You can install a new fiber optic module in a port while the device is powered on and running.
