7.5.7 Replacing SFP/CSFP/SFP+ Transceivers

ECI supplies field-replaceable SFP/CSFP/SFP+ transceivers in all optical and electrical STM-1 interfaces. Hot
swapping is allowed, provided you observe the safety precautions described in
replacement.
To replace an SFP/CSFP/SFP+ transceiver:
1. Mark each fiber or cable connected to the transceiver for identification purposes.
2. Identify the position of the SFP/CSFP/SFP+ transceiver to be replaced.
3. Disconnect the fibers or cables connected to the transceiver.
4. Remove the transceiver plug-in by pulling its tab.
5. Insert the rear end of the replacement transceiver plug-in into the prescribed position, and push
slowly backward to mate its rear connector with the corresponding optical interface module
connector until the transceiver clicks into place (see the following figure). If you feel resistance before
the transceiver plug-in is fully inserted, retract the transceiver and repeat the process.
