Removing the XFP

Caution: Do NOT remove the XFP from the port slot without releasing it. The XFP is released by pulling down on its wire handle. Attempting to remove the XFP without releasing it can damage the XFP.

The XFP and its host switch are sensitive to static discharges. Use an antistatic wrist strap and observe all static precautions during this procedure. Failure to do so could result in damaging the XFP or host switch. Always leave the XFP in the antistatic bag or an equivalent antistatic container when not installed.

Precaución: NO quite el XFP de la ranura sin antes abrir la traba ubicada en la parte frontal del XFP. Si lo hace, puede dañar el XFP, puesto que es muy sensible a las descargas de electricidad estática, al igual que el dispositivo host. Utilice la pulsera antiestática y tome todas las precauciones necesarias durante este procedimiento. Si no lo hace, pude dañar el XFP o el dispositivo host. Mientras no esté instalado, mantenga el XFP en su bolsa antiestática o en cualquier otro recipiente antiestático.
