Removing an ACX4000 Transceiver
Removing a transceiver does not interrupt router functioning, but the removed transceiver no longer
receives or transmits data.
To remove a transceiver (see
1. Have ready a replacement transceiver or a transceiver slot plug, an antistatic mat, and a rubber safety
cap for the transceiver.
2. Attach an ESD grounding strap to your bare wrist, and connect the other end of the strap to an ESD
grounding point.
3. Label the cables connected to the transceiver so that you can reconnect them correctly later.
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 cables connected to a
transceiver emit laser light that can damage your eyes.
4. Remove the cable connector from the transceiver.
5. Pull the ejector handle out from the transceiver to unlock the transceiver.
