Installing an SFP Transceiver in a Line Card

To install an SFP transceiver in a line card, perform the following
procedure:

Note

The SFP transceiver can be hot swapped; you do not need to power
off the chassis to install an SFP transceiver. However, always
remove the cables before removing the SFP.

Note

You must install the SFP transceiver before you connect cables to it.

1. Remove the SFP transceiver from its shipping container and store the

packaging material in a safe location.

Caution

An SFP transceiver can be damaged by static electricity. Be sure to
observe all standard electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions,
such as wearing an antistatic wrist strap, to avoid damaging the
transceiver.

2. Slide the SFP transceiver into the slot in the line card, as shown in

Figure 24.
