Figure 2-1: Installing the Switch
Installing SFP Modules
CAUTION: We strongly recommend that you do not install or remove fiber-optic SFP
modules with cables attached because of the potential damage to the cables, the cable
connector, or the optical interfaces in the SFP module. Disconnect all cables before removing
or installing an SFP module.
Removing and installing an SFP module can shorten its useful life. Do not remove and insert
SFP modules more often than is absolutely necessary.
To insert an SFP module into the module slot, follow these steps:
1. Attach an ESD-preventive wrist strap to your wrist and to a bare metal surface on the
chassis.
2. Remove the dust cap and save for future use.
