5. Using both hands, carefully align the transceiver in front of the empty port. The connectors must face
the chassis.
CAUTION: Before you slide the transceiver into the port, ensure that the transceiver is
aligned correctly. Misalignment might cause the pins to bend, making the transceiver
unusable.
6. Slide the transceiver in gently until it is fully seated. Tighten the captive screws on the transceiver by
using your fingers.
7. Remove the rubber safety cap when you are ready to connect the cable to the transceiver.
