3.4.5. SFP Transceivers
The product supports UL and IEC certified transceivers only. See Westermo's modular
transceivers datasheets for supported SFP and SFP+ transceivers, which can be
downloaded from the product support pages at
www.westermo.com/support/product-
Each SFP slot can hold one SFP transceiver. See "Transceiver User Guide 6100-0000" for
transceiver handling instructions, which also can be downloaded from the product support
pages at

In the event of contamination, the optical connectors in the SFP transceivers should only
be cleaned by the use of forced nitrogen and some kind of cleaning stick. Recommended
cleaning fluids are methyl-, ethyl-, isopropyl- or isobutyl alcohol, hexane or naphtha.
HANDLING OF SFP TRANSCEIVERS
SFP transceivers are supplied with plugs to avoid contamination inside the
optical port. They are very sensitive to dust and dirt. If the fibre optic
cable is disconnected from the product, a protective plug must be used
on the transmitter/receiver. The protective plug must be kept on during
transportation. The fibre optic cable must be handled the same way.
