Guidelines to Handling SFP Transceivers
Please review the following guidelines before installing SFP transceivers
in the switches:
The transceivers are hot-swappable. You can install them while the
switch is powered on.
For a list of supported transceivers, refer to the product data sheet
on the Allied Telesis web site.
The operational specifications and fiber optic cable requirements of
the transceivers are provided in the documents included with the
devices.
You should install a transceiver before connecting its fiber optic
cable.
Fiber optic transceivers are dust sensitive. Always keep the plug in
the optical bores when a fiber optic cable is not installed, or when
you store the transceiver. When you do remove the plug, keep it for
future use.
Unnecessary removal and insertion of a transceiver can lead to
premature failure.
Caution
Transceivers can be damaged by static electricity. Be sure to
observe all standard electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions,
such as wearing an antistatic wrist strap, to avoid damaging the
devices. E92
