Removing MiniGBICs

MiniGBICs modules can be hot swapped. You are not required to power off the switch before removing a
MiniGBIC from the uplink module. To remove a MiniGBIC from the uplink module, follow the steps
below:

Anti-Static Warning. Before handling any component, free yourself of static by wearing a grounding
strap, or by grounding yourself properly. Static discharge can damage the MiniGBIC, as well as the switch
and uplink module.

screws on the OS6600-GNI-U2 are tightened and the module is securely installed in the chassis.

There is a small removal handle at the front of the MiniGBIC transceiver. Carefully lift this handle;

then, grasp the handle and carefully pull the MiniGBIC from the module.

Store the MiniGBIC in a secure, static-free location. Placing the MiniGBIC in an anti-static bag is
