D.1 Instructions on How to Use an Optical Module
NOTE
Use only the modules supplied by HUAWEI.We cannot guarantee that an interface module will operate correctly
if third-party transceivers are used.
Precautions for the loosened optical module
l
When installing an optical module, force it into position. If a click is heard or a slight tremor
is felt, it indicates that the latch is secured. When the latch is not secured, the connecting
finger is not properly connected to the board, and the link may become Up. In the rare event
where the optical modulecollides with another object or is made to tremor, the optical
module will be loosened or the optical signals will be temporarily cut off.
l
When inserting the optical module, make sure that the tab is closed. (At this time, the latch
locks the optical module.) After the optical module is inserted, try pulling it out to see
whether it is installed properly. If the optical module cannot be pulled out, it is secured.

The tab is open
Precautions for receptacle contamination
l
Clean tissues must be prepared for deployment on site. You need to clean the optical
connector before inserting it in the receptacle. This protects the receptacle against the
contamination.
NOTE
Use at least three cleaning tissues. Wipe the end of an optical connector horizontally in one direction, and
then move the connector end to the unused part of the cleaning tissue to continue. Generally, one cleaning
tissue is used for cleaning an optical connector.
l
To prevent contamination, the optical module should be covered with either a dust cap or
an optical connector.
