Figure 10. Inserting the SFP
Note
SFP transceivers are dust sensitive. When a fiber optic cable is not installed, or when you store the SFP, always keep the plug in the slot. When you do remove the plug, keep it for future use.
Note
Unnecessary removal and insertion of an SFP can lead to premature failure.
For information about cabling for the SFP, refer to “Cabling an SFP Transceiver” on page 44.
