WARNING
Risk of eye injury by laser
Fiber optic equipment can emit laser or infrared light that can
injure your eyes. Never look into an optical fiber or connector
port. Always assume that fiber optic cables are connected to a
light source.
CAUTION
Risk of equipment damage
To prevent damage from electrostatic discharge, always wear
an antistatic wrist strap connected to an ESD jack.

1 Disconnect the network fiber cable from the XFP connector.
2 Affix a dust cover over the optical connector.
3 Pull the bail mechanism on the XFP to release the XFP.
4 Slide the XFP out of the module XFP slot.
If the XFP does not slide easily from the module slot, use a
