Step 8
To verify that the SFP is seated and latched properly:
a. Grasp the SFP as shown in Figure 10 and try to remove it without releasing the latch.
b. If the SFP can not be removed, it is installed and seated properly. If the SFP can be removed, reinsert
it and press harder with your thumb, repeating if necessary until it is latched securely into the socket.
