Replacing the Gigabit Ethernet Short Wave Transceiver

NOTE: To replace the OC-3 ATM transceiver, see the replacement procedures found later in this chapter.

Replacing the Gigabit Ethernet Short Wave Transceiver

There are several types of short wave transceivers for the Gig-E interface card. This section provides procedures for both removing and installing the various types of Gig-E short wave transceivers.

Tools required: No special tools are required.

CAUTION

Attach a wrist strap and follow ESD procedures during the handling of all electronic components.

The transceivers are hot swappable, which means they can be replaced while the UltraNet Edge 3000 unit is in operation.

CAUTION

Laser radiation is invisible and can damage the eye. Unterminated optical connectors may emit laser radiation. Do not view the beam with the naked eye or with optical instruments. Dust caps and dust covers MUST be left in place on all unterminated bulkhead receptacles and on the end of every radiating fiber jumper.
