Removing a Transceiver from an EX Series Switch

Copyright © 2014, Juniper Networks, Inc.
To disconnect a fiber-optic cable from an optical transceiver installed in the switch:
Disable the port in which the transceiver is installed by issuing the following command:
1.
[edit interfaces]
user@switch# set interface-name disable
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 transceivers emit laser light that can damage your eyes.
Carefully unplug the fiber-optic cable connector from the transceiver.
2.
Cover the transceiver with a rubber safety cap.
3.
WARNING: Do not leave a fiber-optic transceiver uncovered except when
inserting or removing a cable. The rubber safety cap keeps the port clean
and prevents accidental exposure to laser light.
Cover the fiber-optic cable connector with the rubber safety cap.

field-replaceable units (FRUs): You can remove and replace them without powering off
the switch or disrupting switch functions.
NOTE: After you remove a transceiver or when you change the media-type
configuration, wait for 6 seconds for the interface to display the operational
commands.
Before you begin removing a transceiver from an EX Series switch, ensure that you have
taken the necessary precautions for safe handling of lasers (see
