SUMMARY STEPS
1. Attach an ESD-preventive wrist strap to your wrist and to a bare metal surface.
2. Disconnect the cable from the SFP module. For reattachment, note which cable connector plug is send
(TX) and which is receive (RX).
3. Insert a dust plug into the optical ports of the SFP or SFP+ module to keep the optical interfaces clean.
4. If the module has a bale-clasp latch, pull the bale out and down to eject the module. If the latch is obstructed
and you cannot use your finger, use a small, flat-blade screwdriver or other long, narrow instrument to
open the latch.
5. Grasp the SFP or SFP+ module, and carefully remove it from the module slot.
6. Place the module in an antistatic bag or other protective environment.
