Caution: Carefully follow the instructions in this manual to avoid damaging the SFP/XFP and G-Series.

The SFP/XFP and G-Series 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 damage to the SFP/XFP and G-Series. Always leave the SFP/XFP in the antistatic bag or an equivalent antistatic container when not installed.

Precaución: Siga las instrucciones del manual para no dañar el SFP/XFP ni del aparato, puesto que son muy sensible a las descargas de electricidad estática. Utilice la pulsera antiestática y tome todas las precauciones necesarias durante este procedimiento. Si no lo hace, podría dañar el SFP/ XFP o del aparato. Mientras no esté instalado, mantenga el SFP/XFP en su bolsa antiestática o en cualquier otro recipiente antiestático.

To install a SFP/XFP, refer to Figure 2‐10 on page 2‐20 and proceed as follows.

1.With an antistatic wrist strap attached to your wrist, remove the transceiver from its packaging. If there is a protective dust cover in the transceiver connector, do not remove it at this time.

2.Hold the transceiver so that the connector will seat properly.

3.Carefully align the transceiver with the port slot as shown in Figure 2‐10 on page 2‐20.

4.Push the transceiver into the port slot until it “clicks” and locks into place.
