If you wish to remove the transceiver (it is not necessary to power-down
your Switch):
1 Disconnect the cable from the transceiver.
2 Move the wire release lever downwards until it is pointing toward you.
3 Pull the wire release lever toward you to release the catch mechanism;
the transceiver will then easily slide out.
This section describes how to correctly package your Switch 4500 should
you need to return the Switch to 3Com.
WARNING: The unit should be packaged safely to ensure that you do
not invalidate the repair.
