Installing a Cisco Pluggable Transceiver Module
• To prevent ESD damage, follow your normal board and component handling procedures when connecting
cables to the switch and other devices.
• When you insert several transceiver modules in multiple switch ports, wait for 5 seconds between inserting
each transceiver module. This will prevent the ports from going into error disabled mode. Similarly,
when you remove a transceiver module from a port, wait for 5 seconds before reinserting it.
Procedure
Step 1
Attach an ESD-preventive wrist strap to your wrist and to an earth ground surface.
Step 2 Find the send (TX) and receive (RX) markings that identify the top of the transceiver module.
On some transceiver modules, the send and receive (TX and RX) markings might be shown by arrows that
show the direction of the connection.
Step 3 If the transceiver module has a bale-clasp latch, move it to the open, unlocked position.
Step 4
Align the module in front of the slot opening, and push until you feel the connector snap into place.

Step 6
