Step 2 Find the send (TX) and receive (RX) markings that identify the correct side of the SFP module.

On some SFP modules, the send and receive (TX and RX) markings might be replaced by arrows that show the direction of the connection, either send or receive (TX or RX).

Step 3 Align the SFP module sideways in front of the slot opening.

Step 4 Insert the SFP module into the slot until you feel the connector on the module snap into place in the rear of the slot. See Figure 2-28.

Step 5 Remove the dust plugs from the SFP module optical ports and store them for later use.

Caution Do not remove the dust plugs from the SFP module port or the rubber caps from the fiber-optic cable until you are ready to connect the cable. The plugs and caps protect the SFP module ports and cables from contamination and ambient light.

Step 6 Insert the LC cable connector into the SFP module.

Removing SFP Modules from SFP Module Slots

Step 1 Attach an ESD-preventive wrist strap to your wrist and to a grounded bare metal surface.

Step 2 Disconnect the LC from the SFP module.
