4. (SFP+ and SFP28 modules) Inspect and clean the uncovered fiber-optic end faces of the LC
connectors.
5. (SFP+ and SFP28 modules) Remove the dust cap from the module. Save the dust cap for future
use.
6. (SFP+ and SFP28 modules) Connect the LC connectors of the fiber-optic cable to the module.
Removing the Transceiver Module
To remove a transceiver (SFP, SFP+ or SFP28) module from an SFP cage, perform the following
procedure.
(The removal process is identical for each type of transceiver).
1. (SFP+ and SFP28 modules) Disconnect the LC cable connector from the module.
2. (SFP+ and SFP28 modules) Reinstall the dust cap onto each LC cable connector.
3. Remove the module from the SFP cage.
a. Open the bail latch by rotating it 90 degrees.
b. Grasp the module and carefully remove it from the cage.
4. Close the bail latch.
5. Reinstall the dust cap onto the SFP+ / SFP28 module.
