Replacing a transceiver module

Replacing the XFP, SFP+, SFP, and QSFP+ modules

CAUTION:

The replacement procedures for the XFP, SFP, SFP+, and QSFP+ modules are similar. This section uses an

SFP+ module as an example.
To replace a transceiver module:

1.

Put on an ESD wrist strap, making sure that the strap makes good skin contact and is correctly
grounded.

2.

Remove the optical fibers from the SFP+ module, pivot the clasp down to the horizontal position,
and then pull the SFP+ module out of the port, as shown in

Figure 74

Gently insert the SFP+ module into the port until it fits in completely, as shown in
