6 Removal/Replacement
This section describes the removal and replacement procedures for the following
field replaceable units (FRU):
 SFP transceivers
 The router (see page 6-2)
SFP Transceiver Removal and Replacement
You can remove and replace the SFP transceivers while the router is operating
without damaging the router or the transceiver. However, doing so will interrupt
transmission on the affected port until the transceiver is installed.
 To remove a transceiver, gently press the transceiver into the port to release
the tension, then pull the release tab or lever and remove the transceiver.
Different transceiver manufactures have different release mechanisms.
Consult the documentation for your transceiver.
 To install a transceiver, insert the transceiver into the port and gently press
until it snaps in place.
NOTE:
The SFP transceiver will fit only one way. If the SFP does not install under
gentle pressure, flip it over and try again.
