Removing a Pluggable Transceiver

Caution

Do NOT remove an SFP or SFP+ pluggable transceiver from a slot without releasing the locking tab located under the front bottom end of the transceiver. This can damage the transceiver.

The transceiver and the SSA are sensitive to static discharges. Use an antistatic wrist strap and observe all static precautions during this procedure. Failure to do so could result in damage to the transceiver and the SSA. Always leave the transceiver in the antistatic bag or an equivalent antistatic container when it is not installed.

Precaución: NO quite el SFP o SFP+ de la ranura sin antes abrir la traba ubicada en la parte frontal del el SFP o SFP+.

Utilice la pulsera antiestática y tome todas las precauciones necesarias durante este procedimiento. Si no lo hace, podrìa dañar el SFP, SFP+ o el SSA. Mientras no esté instalado, mantenga el SFP o SFP+ en su bolsa antiestática o en cualquier otro recipiente antiestático.

To remove a pluggable transceiver from a port on your SSA, follow these steps:

Put on the antistatic wrist strap and attach it to the ground receptacle on the switch I/O port side of the SSA.
Refer to the instructions in the anti-static wrist strap package. See SSA Switch Ground Receptacle for the location of the ground receptacle.
Remove the cables connected to the pluggable transceiver.
Release the pluggable transceiver from the port.
Grasp the sides of the pluggable transceiver and pull it straight out of the port.

If you plan to store or ship the pluggable transceiver, insert it into its dust protector to protect its fiber-optic ports.
