To insert an SFP module into the module slot, follow these steps:
Procedure
Step 1
Attach an ESD-preventive wrist strap to your wrist and to a bare metal surface on the chassis.
Some SFP modules identify the top side of the module with send (TX) and receive (RX) markings or arrows
that show the direction of the connection.
Step 2 If the SFP module that you are using has the markings, use them to identify the top side of the module.
Step 3
Align the SFP module in front of the slot opening.
Step 4
Insert the SFP module into the slot until you feel the connector on the module snap into place in the rear of
the slot.

Do not remove the dust plugs from the fiber-optic SFP module port or the rubber caps from the
fiber-optic cable until you are ready to connect the cable. The plugs and caps protect the SFP module
ports and cables from contamination and ambient light. Store the dust plugs for later use.
