Replacing a transceiver module
WARNING!
Disconnected optical fibers or transceiver modules might emit invisible laser light. Do not stare into
beams or view directly with optical instruments when the router is operating.
CAUTION:
Do not touch the golden plating on a transceiver module.
Replacing a transceiver module and optical fiber
To replace a transceiver module and optical fiber:
1.
Wear an ESD wrist strap. Make sure the wrist strap makes good skin contact and is reliably
grounded.
2.
Remove the optical fibers from the transceiver module.
To remove the optical fibers with an LC connector, press the clip on the connector to pull
the LC connector out of the port, as shown in
To remove the optical fiber with an MPO connector, hold the front end of the MPO
connector and then pull it out of the port, as shown in
3.
Pivot the bail latch of the transceiver module down to the horizontal position, and gently pull
the transceiver module out.
Use tweezers to pull the transceiver module out if the interface module is densely populated
with transceiver modules.
4.
Insert the dust plugs into the module and put the module into its original packing materials.
5.
Install a new transceiver module in the port. For the installation procedure, see "
If you are not to install a new transceiver module in the port, insert the dust plug into the fiber
port.
