Installing an SFP Transceiver with an LC connector

Caution: Do NOT remove the SFP from the port slot without releasing it. The SFP is released by
pulling down on its wire handle. Attempting to remove the SFP without releasing it can damage the
SFP.
The SFP and its host switch 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 damaging the
SFP or host switch. Always leave the SFP in the antistatic bag or an equivalent antistatic container
when not installed.
Precaución: NO quite el SFP de la ranura sin antes abrir la traba ubicada en la parte frontal del
SFP. Si lo hace, puede dañar el SFP, puesto que es muy sensible a las descargas de electricidad
estática, al igual que el dispositivo host. Utilice la pulsera antiestática y tome todas las
precauciones necesarias durante este procedimiento. Si no lo hace, pude dañar el SFP o el
dispositivo host. Mientras no esté instalado, mantenga el SFP en su bolsa antiestática o en
cualquier otro recipiente antiestático.
