SAN768B-2 Installation, Service, and User Guide
2. Grasp the pull tab 1 firmly and pull the unit (including the cable) out of the
port.
3. Disconnect the cable from the transceiver.
4. Set the transceiver on a static-free surface, such as a grounding pad.
Installing an mSFP transceiver
Attention:
Do not use cables for mSFP transceivers with standard SFP+
transceivers. Do not insert mSFP optical transceivers into ports intended for SFP+
transceivers. They will be faulted on power-up.
To install an mSFP transceiver, complete these steps.
1. Ensure that both cable and transceiver are clean prior to installation.
2. Insert the cable into the new transceiver until the latching mechanism clicks.
3. Position the optical transceiver so that the key is oriented correctly to the port.
Using the pull tab, insert the transceiver into the port until it is firmly seated
and the latching mechanism clicks. Transceivers are keyed so that they can only
be inserted with the correct orientation. If a transceiver does not slide in easily,
ensure that it is correctly oriented.
4. Replace the chassis door.
Removing a QSFP transceiver
Use this procedure to remove QSFP transceivers supported on the FC16-64 port
blades and core switch blades.
Follow these guidelines while removing and replacing QSFP transceivers:
Do not use the extraction tool to remove the QSFP transceivers.
v
v The QSFP transceivers are used only with the FC16-64 port blades and core
switch blades. However, the part numbers of QSFP transceivers supported on
FC16-64 port blade and the core blades are not the same and the QSFP
transceivers are not interchangeable.
v Do not insert QSFP optical transceivers into ports intended for SFP+ or mSFP
transceivers. They will be faulted on power-up.
v Do not use cables for QSFP transceivers with standard SFP+ or mSFP
transceivers.
Complete these steps to remove a QSFP transceiver.
1. Remove the chassis door if you have not already done so ("Removing and
installing the chassis door" on page 81).
2. Grasp the rubber housing on the end of the cable and pull it straight out of the
QSFP transceiver.
3. Remove the QSFP transceiver by rotating the bail downward, and then use the
bail to pull the transceiver out of the connector on the blade.
