Both SFP and GBIC modules should gently slide into their ports and should lock
in place when fully inserted. Dust covers should be in place when installing the
modules, and should always be in place when cables are not connected.
Diagrams of both SFP and GBIC modules are provided in Table 1 as a guide to
the orientation of each type.
2.8.2 GBIC Module Removal
GBIC modules have two locking latches, one on either side of the module, as
shown in Figure 29. To remove a GBIC module, disconnect any cables and
replace the dust cover to protect the optics. Depress both latches simultaneously
and gently pull the module from the chassis. The module should be immediately
stored in an ESD-safe environment.

2.8.3 SFP Module Removal
SFP Modules are removed using the metal bail latch located on the top of the
module as shown in Figure 30. To remove the SFP module, disconnect any
cables and replace the dust cover to protect the optics. Grasp the bail latch and
gently pull outwards to unlock and remove the module. Removal of an SFP
module is shown further in Figure 31. The module should be immediately stored
in an ESD-safe environment.
