Warning
Invisible laser radiation may be emitted from the aperture ports of single-mode fiber optic modules
when a cable is not connected. Avoid exposure and do not stare into open apertures.
Step 1 Disconnect the network interface fiber-optic cable from the GBIC SC connector and replace the
protective plug.
Step 2 Release the GBIC from the card-interface by simultaneously squeezing the two plastic tabs (one on each
side of the GBIC).
Step 3 Slide the GBIC out of the Gigabit Ethernet front-panel slot.
Note A flap closes over the GBIC slot to protect the connector on the Gigabit Ethernet
(E1000-2/E1000-2-G) card.
Step 4 Remove the new GBIC from its protective packaging.
Step 5 Check the part number to verify that the GBIC is the correct type for your network.
Caution Check the label on the GBIC carefully, the two GBIC models look similar.
Step 6 Grip the sides of the GBIC with your thumb and forefinger and insert the GBIC into the slot on the front
panel of the Gigabit Ethernet (E1000-2/E1000-2-G) card.
Note GBICs are keyed to prevent incorrect installation.
