Guidelines to Handling SFP and SFP+ Transceivers

Please review the following guidelines before installing SFP or SFP+
transceivers in the switches:
 Transceivers are hot-swappable. You can install them while the
switch is powered on.
 For a list of supported transceivers, refer to the product's data
sheet on the Allied Telesis web site.
 The operational specifications and fiber optic cable requirements of
the transceivers are provided in documents included with the
devices.
 You should install a transceiver before connecting its fiber optic
cable.

Fiber optic transceivers are dust sensitive. Always keep the plug in
the optical bores when a fiber optic cable is not installed, or when
you store the transceiver. When you do remove the plug, keep it for
future use.
 Unnecessary removal and insertion of a transceiver can lead to
premature failure.
Caution
Transceivers can be damaged by static electricity. Be sure to
observe all standard electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions,
such as wearing an anti-static wrist strap, to avoid damaging the
devices.  E92
