Removing SFP or SFP+ Modules

Step1 Attach an ESD-preventive wrist strap to your wrist and to an earth ground surface.
Step2 Disconnect the cable from the SFP module. For reattachment, note which cable connector plug is send
(TX) and which is receive (RX).
Step3 Insert a dust plug into the optical ports of the SFP module to keep the optical interfaces clean.
Step4 If the module has a bale-clasp latch, pull the bale out and down to eject the module. If you cannot use
your finger to open the latch, use a small, flat-blade screwdriver or other long, narrow instrument to open
it.
Step5 Grasp the SFP module, and carefully remove it from the slot.
Step6 Place the SFP module in an antistatic bag or other protective environment.

Caution Category 5e and Category 6 cables can store high levels of static electricity. Always ground the cables
to a suitable and safe earth ground before connecting them to the switch or other devices.

10/100/1000 Ethernet Port Connections

The 10/100/1000 Ethernet ports use RJ-45 connectors with Ethernet pinouts. The maximum cable length
is 328 feet (100 meters). The 100BASE-TX and 1000BASE-T traffic requires Category5, Category 5e,
or Category6 UTP cable. The 10BASE-T traffic can use Category 3 or Category 4 cable.
