Before you begin
See the Cisco Nexus 9364E-SG2-Q switch
modules. Use only supported SFP/SFP+ modules on the platform.
Warning
Note
• Do not remove the dust plugs from the SFP and SFP+ modules or the rubber caps from the fiber-optic
• Removing and installing an SFP and SFP+ module can shorten its useful life. Do not remove and insert
• To prevent ESD damage, follow your normal board and component handling procedures when connecting
• When you insert several SFP and SFP+ modules in multiple ports, wait for 5 seconds between inserting
SUMMARY STEPS
1. Attach an ESD-preventive wrist strap to your wrist and to an earth ground surface.
2. Find the send (TX) and receive (RX) markings that identify the top of the SFP/SFP+ module.
3. If the SFP/SFP+ module has a bale-clasp latch, move it to the open, unlocked position.
4. Align the module in front of the slot opening and push until you feel the connector snap into place.
5. If the module has a bale-clasp latch, close it to lock the SFP/SFP+ module in place.
6. Remove the SFP and SFP+ dust plugs and save.
7. Connect the SFP and SFP+ cables.
Statement 1008 Class 1 Laser Product
This product is a Class 1 laser product.
We recommend that you wait 30 seconds between removal and insertion of an SFP on an interface module.
This allows the transceiver software to initialize and synchronize with the standby RSP. Changing an SFP
more quickly could result in transceiver initialization issues that disable the SFP.

each SFP/SFP+. This will prevent the ports from going into error / disabled mode. Similarly, when you
remove an SFP and SFP+ from a port, wait for 5 seconds before reinserting it.
