Removing SFP Devices
Warning
If the surrounding air operating temperature of the PNC module is greater than
40 °C, SFP devices could have operating temperatures over 70 °C (158 °F).
Under these conditions, for your safety, do
not
use bare hands to remove an
SFP device from the SFP cage. Use protective gloves or a tool (needle-nose
pliers) to avoid handling the hot SFP device directly when removing the SFP
device.
Remove the cable from the SFP device. If the device has a latching mechanism such as a bale
clasp, open it gently. Do not pull on the latching mechanism. Hold the sides of the SFP device and
pull it out of the PROFINET Controller port.
