Step 4 Insert the transceiver into the port as follows:
•If the transceiver has a Mylar tab latch, position the transceiver with the tab on the bottom, and then gently insert the transceiver into the port until it clicks into place.
•If the transceiver has a bale clasp latch, position the transceiver with the clasp on the bottom, close the clasp by pushing it up over the transceiver, and then gently insert the transceiver into the port until it clicks into place.
Caution If the transceiver does not install easily, ensure that it is correctly positioned and the tab or clasp are in the correct position before continuing.

Caution If the transceiver does not remove easily in the next step, push the transceiver completely in and then ensure that the latch is in the correct position before continuing.
Step 3 Remove the transceiver from the port as follows:
•If the transceiver has a Mylar tab latch, gently pull the tab straight out (do not twist), and then pull the transceiver out of the port.
•If the transceiver has a bale clasp latch, open the clasp by pressing it downward, and then pull the transceiver out of the port.
Note If you have difficulty removing a bale clasp transceiver, you should reseat it by returning the bale clasp latch to the up position. Press the transceiver inward and upward into the cage. Next, lower the bale clasp latch and pull the transceiver straight out with a slight upward lifting force. Be careful not to damage the port cage during this process.
