Bale Clasp SFP+ Module

Caution
Protect the SFP+ modules by inserting clean dust covers into them after the cables are removed. Be sure to
clean the optic surfaces of the fiber cables before you plug them back into the optical ports of another module.
Avoid getting dust and other contaminants into the optical ports of your SFP+ modules, because the optics
do not work correctly when obstructed by dust.
Caution
We strongly recommended that you do not install or remove the SFP+ module with fiber-optic cables attached
to it because of the potential of damaging the cable, the cable connector, or the optical interfaces in the module.
Disconnect all cables before removing or installing an SFP+ module. Removing and inserting a module can
shorten its useful life, so you should not remove and insert modules any more than is absolutely necessary.
Note
When installing an SFP+ module, you should hear a click as the triangular pin on the bottom of the module
snaps into the hole in the receptacle. The click indicates that the module is correctly seated and secured in the
receptacle. Verify that the modules are completely seated and secured in their assigned receptacles on the line
card by firmly pushing on each SFP+ module.
