Juniper QFX5100, Hardware Manual

Page: 224 / 256

WARNING: Do not leave a fiber-optic transceiver uncovered except when
inserting or removing a cable. The rubber safety cap keeps the port clean
and prevents accidental exposure to laser light.
CAUTION: Do not bend fiber-optic cables beyond their minimum bend
radius. Bending the cables beyond their minimum bend radius can damage
the cables and cause problems that are difficult to diagnose.
3.
Remove the cable connected to the transceiver (see “Disconnecting a Fiber-Optic
Cable from a QFX Series Device” on page 208 ). Cover the transceiver and the end of
each fiber-optic cable connector with a rubber safety cap immediately after
disconnecting the fiber-optic cables.
4.
Using your fingers, pull the ejector lever away from the transceiver to unlock the
transceiver.
CAUTION: Before removing the transceiver, make sure you open the ejector
lever completely until you hear it click. This prevents damage to the
transceiver.
5.
Using the needlenose pliers, pull the ejector lever out from the transceiver.
6.
Grasp the transceiver ejector lever and gently slide the transceiver approximately
0.5 in. (1.3 cm) straight out of the port.
CAUTION: To avoid electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage to the
transceiver, do not touch the connector pins at the end of the transceiver.
7.
Using your fingers, grasp the body of the transceiver and pull it straight out of the port.
8.
Place the transceiver in the antistatic bag or on the antistatic mat placed on a flat,
stable surface.
9.
Place the dust cover over the empty port.
