Removing a Transceiver from the PTX1000

The transceivers for the PTX1000 are hot-removable and hot-insertable field-replaceable units (FRUs)—you
can remove and replace them without powering off the PTX1000 or disrupting routing functions.
Before you begin removing a transceiver from a PTX1000, ensure that you have taken the necessary
precautions for safe handling of lasers (see
and "Laser and LED Safety Guidelines and Warnings" on page

PTX1000" on page 108). Cover the transceiver and the end of each fiber-optic cable connector with a
rubber safety cap immediately after disconnecting the fiber-optic cables.
