Warning:
Risk of equipment damage
SFP transceivers are keyed to prevent incorrect insertion. If the SFP transceiver resists
pressure, do not force it; turn it over, and reinsert it.
Apply a light pressure to the device until it clicks and locks into position.
4. Remove the dust cover from the optical bore, and insert the fiber optic connector.
