Before you begin

Ensure that before you handle any switch components, you are wearing a grounded electrostatic discharge
(ESD) strap. To ground the strap, attach it directly to earth ground or to a grounded rack or chassis. There
must be a metal-to-metal connection to earth ground.

Step 1

Remove the fiber-optic cables from the transceiver module before removing the transceiver module.

Step 2

Use the wide side of the optics extraction tool to release the bale latch (see the following image).

Step 3

Use the narrow end of the optics extraction tool to carefully remove the transceiver module (see the following

image).

Step 4

Place the transceiver module in an antistatic bag or other protective environment.
