Installing an SFP

Follow the instructions below to install SFPs in the router.
Note: SFPs are keyed so that they can be inserted only in the correct orientation. If
a transceiver does not install easily, ensure that it is oriented and aligned
correctly, and that the port is not blocked by a protective cap or other object.
1. Remove the protective cap (if any) from the router port. Save the cap for future
use.
2. Remove the SFP from its static-protective package.
