Replacing an SFP+ transceiver
Complete the following steps to replace an SFP+ transceiver.
1. Making sure that the bail (wire handle) is in the unlocked position, position the optical transceiver so
that the key is oriented correctly to the port. Insert the transceiver into the port until it is firmly seated
and the latching mechanism clicks; then close the bail.
The 16 Gbps SFP+ transceivers do not have bails. Use the tab on the 16 Gbps SFP+ transceivers to
help gently push the transceiver into the port. Do not push so hard as to bend the tab.
