Removing SFP Devices

WARNING
If the surrounding air operating temperature of the PNC001 module is greater than 40°C
(104°F), SFP devices could reach operating temperatures over 70°C (158°F). Under these
conditions, for your safety, do not use bare hands to remove an SFP device from the SFP
cage. Use protective gloves or a tool (needle-nose pliers) to avoid handling the hot SFP
device directly when removing the SFP device.
Remove the cable from the SFP device. If the device has a latching mechanism such as a bale
clasp, open it gently. Do not pull on the latching mechanism. Hold the sides of the SFP
device and pull it out of the PROFINET Controller port.
