Replacing a QSFP28 transceiver
Complete the following steps to remove and then install a new QSFP28 transceiver.
1. Remove any cables that are inserted into the transceiver.
NOTE
If your transceiver has an integrated cable, you cannot remove the cable.
2. Grasp the transceiver pull tab and gently pull the transceiver straight out from the port.
NOTE
Grasp the pull tab near the body of the transceiver to reduce the chances of bending the pull tab. As the transceiver
may be hot, always use the pull tab and avoid touching the transceiver body.
3. To insert the replacement transceiver, use the pull tab to carefully push the transceiver into the port. Transceivers are keyed so
that they can only be inserted with the correct orientation. If a transceiver does not slide in easily, ensure that it is correctly
oriented. Gently push the correctly oriented QSFP28 transceiver until the latching mechanism clicks.
NOTE
The following gure uses a generic interface module. Your interface module might look
dierent.
