l
When inserting the board, make sure that you align the board with the board tracks and
insert the board along the board tracks so that the board is in proper contact with the
backplane.
l
Insert a board (in the disconnected state) into or remove it from the slot carefully. Make
sure that the board does not collide with the shelf (chassis) or the boards in adjacent slots.

Removing a service board that is
loading a program can damage the
program. Therefore, before replacing a
service board, make sure that the
service board is not loading any
program. When a board is loading a
program, the running status LED of this
board blinks rapidly.

Precautions for Replacing Optical Transceivers
DANGER
During the replacement of an optical transceiver, do not look directly at an optical port without
wearing protective glasses. The laser emitted from the optical port can injure your eyes.
l
Take ESD measures before the replacement.
l
Only external optical transceivers (pluggable) can be directly replaced. During the
replacement of an external optical transceiver, you need not remove or install the board
into which the optical transceiver is plugged. Built-in optical transceivers cannot be directly
replaced. To replace a built-in optical transceiver, you need to replace the daughter board
or board to which the built-in optical transceiver is attached.
l
During the replacement, make sure that the optical transceiver is not connected to any
optical fibers.
l
Exercise caution when inserting or removing an optical fiber. Do not damage the optical
fiber connector.
l
During the entire replacement, keep the optical ports of the optical transceiver and the
optical fiber connectors clean. Protect them from dust and other contamination sources.
l
After removing the optical fibers from the optical ports of the optical transceiver, cover the
optical fiber connectors with protective caps. Then, place the optical fibers properly and
make sure that they do not swing. Swinging optical fibers may affect the replacement of
the optical transceiver.
l
Apply proper force when removing an optical transceiver, because excessive force may
damage the optical transceiver.
l
Use assistant tools such as a fiber extractor to remove an optical transceiver if operation
space is limited.
