Maintaining Cables That Connect to MX2020 MPCs or MICs on page 175
Small form-factor pluggables (SFPs and XFPs) are optical transceivers that are installed
in a MPC or MIC. SFPs and XFPs are hot-insertable and hot-removable.

2.
Removing an SFP or XFP does not interrupt MPC or MIC functioning, but the removed
SFP or XFP no longer receives or transmits data.
To remove an SFP or XFP transceiver (see
Have ready a replacement transceiver or a transceiver slot plug, an antistatic mat,
1.
and a rubber safety cap for the transceiver.
Attach an electrostatic discharge (ESD) grounding strap to your bare wrist, and connect

the strap to one of the ESD points on the chassis.
Label the cables connected to the transceiver so that you can reconnect them correctly

later.
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.
Remove the cable connector from the transceiver.
4.
Carefully arrange the disconnected cable in the cable manager to prevent the cable
5.
from developing stress points.
CAUTION: Avoid bending fiber-optic cable beyond its minimum bend
radius. An arc smaller than a few inches in diameter can damage the cable
and cause problems that are difficult to diagnose.
Pull the ejector handle out from the transceiver to unlock the transceiver.
6.
CAUTION: Make sure that you open the ejector handle completely until
you hear it click. This prevents damage to the transceiver.
Use needle nose pliers to pull the ejector handle out from the transceiver.
Grasp the transceiver ejector handle, and pull the transceiver approximately 0.5 in. (1.3
7.
cm) out of the MPC or MIC.
