Removing a PTX5000 PIC CFP Transceiver
C form-factor pluggables (CFPs) are transceivers that can be removed from a PIC. CFP transceivers are
hot-insertable and hot-removable. Removing a CFP transceiver does not interrupt PIC functioning, but
the removed CFP transceiver no longer receives or transmits data.
To remove a CFP transceiver:
1. Place an electrostatic bag or antistatic mat on a flat, stable surface to receive the CFP transceiver.
Have ready a rubber safety cap for the CFP transceiver and the cable.
2. Attach an electrostatic discharge (ESD) grounding strap to your bare wrist, and connect the strap to
one of the ESD points on the chassis.
3. Label the cable connected to the CFP transceiver so that you can later reconnect it to the correct
CFP transceiver.
4. Disconnect the cable from the CFP transceiver. Immediately cover the transceiver and the end of the
cable with a rubber safety cap.
LASER WARNING: Do not look directly into a fiber-optic transceiver or into the ends
of fiber-optic cables. Fiber-optic transceivers and fiber-optic cable connected to a
transceiver emit laser light that can damage your eyes.
CAUTION: Do not leave a fiber-optic transceiver uncovered except when inserting or
removing cable. The safety cap keeps the port clean and prevents accidental exposure
to laser light.
5. Arrange the cable in the cable management system to prevent it from dislodging or developing stress
points. Secure the cable so that it is not supporting its own weight as it hangs to the floor. Place
excess cable out of the way in a neatly coiled loop in the cable management system. Placing
fasteners on the loop helps to maintain its shape.
