Typical SFP Modules
Below are images of the two types of Ethernet SFPs. The Single- and Multi-Mode Fiber SFPs accept an LC
Connector. The Copper SFPs accept an RJ45 connector.

Removing SFP Devices
Warning
If the surrounding air operating temperature of the PNC001 module is greater
than 40°C (104°F), SFP devices could reach 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.
