Caution:
If the SFP-transceiver does not install easily, do not use
excessive force. If the transceiver is not oriented properly, it
will stop about one quarter of the way into the slot. Remove and
reorient the transceiver so that it slides easily into the slot.
Installing SFP-Transceivers
SFP-Transceivers varies slightly among manufacturers but the insertion process
is virtually the same for all. To install a transceiver in a card:
1.
Orient the transceiver as shown in picture Figure 25.
2.
Insert the transceiver into the target slot until it locks into position. Leave
the dust plug in the transceiver until you are ready to attach the fibre cable.
Clean the optic surfaces of the fibre cable prior to plugging it into the optical
bores of the SFP transceiver.
