Removing a Transceiver
Before you begin to remove a transceiver from a device, ensure that you have taken the necessary
precautions for safe handling of lasers (see
Laser and LED Safety Guidelines and Warnings
).
Ensure that you have the following parts and tools available:
• An antistatic bag or an antistatic mat
• Rubber safety caps to cover the transceiver and fiber-optic cable connector
• A dust cover to cover the port or a replacement transceiver
The transceivers for Juniper Networks devices are hot-removable and hot-insertable field-replaceable
units (FRUs). You can remove and replace them without powering off the device or disrupting device
functions.
NOTE: After you remove a transceiver or when you change the media-type configuration, wait
for 6 seconds for the interface to display the operational commands.

types of transceivers except the QSFP28 and CFP transceivers.
