Transceiver warnings and cautions
WARNING: Fiber-optic transceivers and fiber-optic cables connected to transceivers emit laser light that can
damage your eyes. To avoid eye injuries, avoid direct eye exposure to the beam from the fiber-optic transceiver or
into the ends of fiber-optic cables when they are powered-up.
CAUTION: The presence of dust in transceiver ports can cause poor cable connectivity. To prevent dust from
entering, install a dust plug in an unused transceiver port.
CAUTION: Supported transceivers can be hot-swapped—removed and installed while the server is powered-on.
However, to prevent potential damage to the transceiver or the fiber-optic cable, disconnect the cable from the
transceiver before hot-swapping it.
CAUTION: Do not remove and install transceivers more often than is necessary. Doing so can shorten the useful life
of the transceiver.
IMPORTANT: When you replace a transceiver with another of a different type, the server might retain selected
port-specific configuration settings that were configured for the replaced transceiver. Be sure to validate or
reconfigure port settings as required.
