Installing and Removing SFPs
98
7705 SAR-A Chassis Installation Guide
Fiber Cable Preparation
Clean the connector on the fiber cable before inserting it into the SFP to prevent transferring
small particles and contaminating the transceiver.
If you switch SFPs from one port to another, ensure that you clean the fiber connectors before
reinserting them.
Apply high standards when inspecting and cleaning fiber connectors. Use a “dry” cleaning
method to clean fiber connectors.
Locking and Release Mechanisms
SFPs approved by Alcatel-Lucent can use different lock and release methods. Possible lock
and release mechanisms include:
•
locking handle—a locking handle or lever on the front of the SFP that you gently
raise or lower to insert or remove the SFP from the port
•
bail—a bar or latch in the front of the SFP that you pull down and outward to release
the module
•
tabs—tabs on the sides or bottom of the SFP that you press inward to release the
module
Caution:
Improper handling, cleaning, and inspection techniques can compromise the fiber
connection, resulting in data transmission errors. Refer to the Optical Handling Reference
Guide (part number 95-5795-01-00), available by logging on to Alcatel-Lucent Online
Customer Support (OLCS) (http://www.alcatel-lucent.com/myaccess). From the “Technical
Content for” drop-down menu, choose 7705 SAR, and click on “Manuals and Guides” to
access the documentation.
