WARNING: Do not leave a fiber-optic transceiver uncovered except when
inserting or removing a cable. The rubber safety cap keeps the port clean
and prevents accidental exposure to laser light.
Cover the fiber-optic cable connector with the rubber safety cap.

The transceivers for EX Series switches are hot-removable and hot-insertable
field-replaceable units (FRUs): You can remove and replace them without powering off
the switch or disrupting switch functions.
Before you begin removing a transceiver from an EX Series switch, ensure that you have
taken the necessary precautions for safe handling of lasers (see "Laser and LED Safety
Guidelines and Warnings for EX Series Switches" on page 275).
Ensure that you have the following parts and tools available:
An antistatic bag or an antistatic mat
Needlenose pliers
Rubber safety caps to cover the transceiver and fiber-optic cable connector
A dust cover to cover the port
Figure 91 on page 222 shows how to remove an SFP transceiver. The procedure is the same
for all transceiver types.
To remove a transceiver from an EX Series switch:
Place the antistatic bag or antistatic mat on a flat, stable surface.

Label the cable connected to the transceiver so that you can reconnect it correctly.
