Disconnect all fiber-optic cables from an SFP transceiver module before
installing or removing it. Do NOT remove and install an SFP
transceiver module more often than is absolutely necessary. Doing so
may shorten the useful life of the SFP transceiver module.
Installing an SFP Transceiver Module
Refer to your SFP transceiver module user’s guide for
specific installation and removal instructions. The
instructions outlined here are meant as an example.
1.
Attach an ESD preventive wrist strap to your wrist and to a bare
metal surface.
2.
Remove the SFP transceiver module from its protective
packaging.
3.
Locate the transmit (Tx) and the receive (Rx) markings on the SFP
transceiver module.
4.

device.
5.

transceiver module snaps into place.
SFP transceiver module installation orientation varies depending on
your device. Your SFP transceiver module comes with a mechanism
that prevents incorrect insertion.
