Installing SFP+ Transceivers in the AT-SBx81XS6 Line Card
Please review the information in “Guidelines to Installing SFP and SFP+
Transceivers” on page 129 before performing this procedure.
To install 10 Gbps SFP+ transceivers in the AT-SBx81XS6 Line Card,
perform the following procedure:
1. Remove the dust plug from the slot chosen for an SFP+ transceiver.
Figure 88 shows the dust plug removed from slot 1.

SBx81XS6 Line Card
Note
Do not remove the dust plug from the SFP+ slot if you are not
installing the transceiver at this time. The dust plug protects the line
card from dust contamination.
2. Orient the SFP+ transceiver with the handle on top, as shown in Figure
89 on page 135.
