Installing a new fiber optic module

You must install a fiber optic module (SFP, SFP+, or XFP transceiver) in each Gigabit Ethernet and
10-Gigabit Ethernet fiber port you want to use.
You can install a new fiber optic module in a port while the device is powered on and running.
Before installing one of these modules into the port, obtain an ESD wrist strap with a plug for
connection to a metal surface.
