The preceding faults lead to temporary or long-term cut-off of optical signals; or even cause
permanent damages to the optical module, affecting communication services.
Measures to Prevent a Loosened Optical Module
1.
When installing an optical module, insert it in position. If you hear a click or feel a slight
shake, it indicates that the latch boss is secured.
If the latch boss is not secured, the gold finger of the optical module is not in good
contact with the connector on the board. In this case, the link may be connected but
optical signals will be cut off or the optical module will be loosened when the optical
module is shaken or hit.

When inserting the optical module, make sure that the release handle is closed. At this
time, the latch boss locks the optical module. After the optical module is inserted, try
pulling it out to see if it is installed in position. If the optical module cannot be pulled
out, it is secured.

Measures to Prevent Receptacle Contamination
1.
Cleaning tissues must be prepared on site. You need to clean the optical connector before
inserting it in the receptacle. This protects the receptacle against contamination on the
surface of the optical connector.
