Required Tools Warning Class 1 laser product. Statement 1008 Warning Laser radiation is present when the system is open and interlocks bypassed. Statement 1014 Warning Only trained and qualified personnel should be allowed to install, replace, or service this equipment. Statement 1030 Required Tools You will need these tools to install the SFP transceiver module: • Wrist strap or other personal grounding device to prevent ESD occurrences.
Installing SFP and SFP+ Transceiver Modules Installing SFP and SFP+ Transceiver Modules SFP transceiver modules can have three types of latching devices to secure an SFP transceiver module in a port socket: • Figure 4 shows an SFP transceiver module with a Mylar tab latch. • Figure 5 shows an SFP transceiver module with an actuator button latch. • Figure 6 shows an SFP transceiver module that has a bail clasp latch. • Figure 7 shows an SFP+ transceiver module that has a bail clasp latch.

Installing SFP and SFP+ Transceiver Modules Note Step 6 Different Cisco devices have different SFP module socket configurations. Your Cisco device could have either a latch-up or a latch-down orientation. Ensure that you are installing the SFP transceiver module in the correct orientation for your Cisco device. For more details, see the hardware installation instructions that came with your Cisco device.
Installing SFP and SFP+ Transceiver Modules Step 7 Press the SFP into the slot firmly with your thumb as shown in Figure 9. Note For SFP transceiver modules equipped with an actuator latch, you must press firmly on both the transceiver faceplate and the actuator button to ensure that the transceiver is properly latched in the socket. Latching the SFP 192406 Figure 9 Step 8 To verify that the SFP is seated and latched properly: a.
Installing SFP and SFP+ Transceiver Modules Note For optical SFP transceiver modules, before removing the dust plugs and making any optical connections, observe the following guidelines: • Always keep the protective dust plugs on the unplugged fiber-optic cable connectors and the transceiver optical bores until you are ready to make a connection. • Always inspect and clean the LC connector end-faces just before making any connections.
Removing SFP and SFP+ Transceiver Modules Step 14 Step 15 Observe the port status LED: • The LED turns green when the SFP transceiver module and the target device have an established link. • The LED turns amber while the STP feature discovers the network topology and searches for loops. This process takes about 30 seconds, and then the LED turns green.
Removing SFP and SFP+ Transceiver Modules Removing an SFP Transceiver Module Equipped with a Mylar Tab 130061 Figure 11 • If the SFP transceiver module has an actuator button latch, gently press the actuator button on the front of the SFP transceiver module until it clicks and the latch mechanism releases the SFP transceiver module from the socket connector. Grasp the actuator button between your thumb and index finger, and carefully pull the SFP transceiver module straight from the module slot.
Removing SFP and SFP+ Transceiver Modules Removing an SFP Transceiver Module Equipped with a Bail Clasp Latch 94127 Figure 13 • The SFP+ transceiver uses a bail clasp style latch which is slightly different than the bail clasp latch for the SFP transceiver. The SFP+ transceiver bail clasp has a small tab protruding down from the bail clasp handle To release the SFP+ bail clasp, push the small tab up and outwards with your index finger to release the bail clasp.
