Optic Transceiver Removal Using the Optics Extraction Tool

Before you begin
To prevent an IP address conflict, you must complete the initial configuration for the switch and establish an
IP address before you create the management connection.
Step 1 Connect the interface cable to a management port on the switch.
Step 2
Connect the other end of the cable to an external hub, switch, or router.

Optic Transceiver Removal Using the Optics Extraction Tool

You use both ends of the optics extraction tool in this procedure. You use the wide end for releasing the bale
latch, and the narrow end for removing the transceiver module.
Before you begin
Ensure that before you handle any switch components, you are wearing a grounded electrostatic discharge
(ESD) strap. To ground the strap, attach it directly to earth ground or to a grounded rack or chassis. There
must be a metal-to-metal connection to earth ground.
Step 1
Remove the fiber-optic cables from the transceiver module before removing the transceiver module.
Step 2 Use the wide side of the optics extraction tool to release the bale latch (see the following image).
