Step 2 Press the release latch on the cable, grasp the connector near the connection point, and gently pull the
connector from the transceiver.
Step 3 Either install a replacement cable in the transceiver (see the “Installing a Cable into an Transceiver”
section on page 3-5) or insert dust plugs into the cable end of the transceiver and the end of the removed
cable.
