Removing A Ptx5000 Pic Sfp+ Transceiver - Juniper PTX5000 Hardware Manual

Removing a PTX5000 PIC SFP+ Transceiver

Small form-factor pluggables (SFPs) are transceivers that can be removed from a PIC. SFPs are hot-
insertable and hot-removable. Removing an SFP does not interrupt PIC functioning, but the removed
SFP no longer receives or transmits data.

To remove an SFP+ transceiver (see
1. Place an electrostatic bag or antistatic mat on a flat, stable surface to receive the SFP+. Have ready a
rubber safety cap for the SFP+ 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 SFP+ so that you can later reconnect it to the correct SFP+.
4. Disconnect the cable from the SFP+. 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
