XFP Transceiver Installation and Removal

XFP Transceiver Installation and Removal
Follow the instructions below when installing an XFP transceiver.
ESD Caution: Before handling the module, you must discharge all static electricity on your person to
avoid Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) damage. If using a wrist strap, ensure that the wrist strap touches your
skin. Attach the other end of the strap to the chassis. If your chassis provides a grounding lug, this can be
used. Refer to your hardware user guide for details.

Dust Exposure: To reduce the risk of dust exposure and physical damage, be sure to replace the protec-
tive rubber cover (provided) when the XFP is not in use.
Eye Safety: XFP transceivers are international Class 1 laser products and are eye-safe devices when oper-
ated within the limits of manufacturers' specifications. Operating XFP transceivers in a manner inconsis-
tent with intended usage and specification may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
Note: After removing a transceiver, wait for a minimum of 5 seconds before re-inserting any transceiver
into the same port. This allows sufficient time for software to detect the removal of the transceiver.
Note: Never force the transceiver in or out of the transceiver slot.
To install, be sure that the bail latch is
closed. Slide the XFP straight into the
slot until the module clicks firmly into
place.
To remove, you must first open the
XFP's hinged bail latch to approxi-
mately ninety degrees. Then, grasp the
hinged face and carefully pull the XFP
straight out of the slot.
