Removing SFP modules
To remove an SFP:
1.
Press and hold the cable release
B
, as shown in section 1 of Figure 10
2. Remove the cable from the SFP, as shown in section 2.
3. Pull the bail (wire handle)
D
in section 3 to release the SFP.
4. Grasping it by the bail, gently but firmly pull the SFP (
C
in section 4) out of
the port.
Attention: If the SFP you are removing does not have a bail, use a small
implement such as a screwdriver to press the release trigger beneath the port.
Non-bailed SFPs can be damaged by the removal process and are not
recommended. Refer to the interoperability matrix at the following web site:
www.ibm.com/servers/storage/support/san for a list of supported SFPs and
devices.
5.
Repeat this procedure for the remaining ports, as required.
