5 Check the LEDs on the front of the Switch to ensure that it is operating
correctly. Refer to “LEDs” on page 18 for more information.
Removing an SFP
Transceiver
If you wish to remove the transceiver (it is not necessary to power-down
your Switch):
1 Disconnect the cable from the transceiver.
2 Move the wire release lever downwards until it is pointing toward you.
3 Pull the wire release lever toward you to release the catch mechanism;
the transceiver will then easily slide out.
Packing and
Shipping the Switch
4500
This section describes how to correctly package your Switch 4500 should
you need to return it to 3Com.
CAUTION: The unit should be packaged safely to ensure that you do not
invalidate the repair.
CAUTION: Before shipping the product, remove any SFPs that have been
inserted into the 1000Base-X ports to prevent damage. The two
3CSFP93-4500 should be replaced in the original packaging and returned
with the Switch.
Use the following sequence of steps to ensure that you package your unit
correctly:
1 Orient your Switch so that the back panel is on the left side (looking
down at the top of the unit) as shown in Figure 11.
2 Secure one of the polystyrene supports to the back panel side of the unit.
Secure the remaining support to the front panel side of the unit in the
same way.
3 Place the unit in the box with the back panel side placed next to the cable
packaging.
