Please review "Guidelines to Handling Fiber Optic or Twisted Pair
Transceivers" on page 179 before performing the procedure.
Your transceivers may look different than those shown in the following
illustrations.
Warning
The temperature of an operational transceiver can exceed 70° C
(158° F). Exercise caution when removing or handling transceivers
with unprotected hands. E43
To install a fiber optic transceiver in an Ethernet line card, perform the
following procedure:
1. Select a port in the XEM2 line card for the transceiver.
2. If the selected port has a dust cover, remove it.
3. Remove the transceiver from its shipping container and store the
packaging material in a safe location.
4. Orient the transceiver and slide it into the port until it clicks into place.
The correct orientation depends on the line card and transceiver:
XEM2-8XSTm or XEM2-12XS Line Card - To install a transceiver
in an odd numbered port, position its handle on the right. To install
a transceiver in an even numbered port, position its handle on the
left. Refer to Figure 103 on page 181.
