Remove a Transceiver
To remove a transceiver:
1. Have ready a replacement transceiver or a transceiver slot plug, an antistatic mat, and a rubber safety
cap for the transceiver.
2. Wrap and fasten one end of the ESD grounding strap around your bare wrist, and connect the other
end of the strap to the ESD point on the chassis.
3. Label the cables connected to the transceiver so that you can reconnect them correctly later.
