SFP Transceivers
The SFP transceivers can be removed and replaced while the switch is operating
without damaging the switch or the transceiver. However, transmission on the
affected port will be interrupted until the transceiver installed.
To remove a transceiver, gently press the transceiver into the port to release the
tension, then pull on the release tab or lever and remove the transceiver. Different
transceiver manufacturers have different release mechanisms. Consult the
documentation for your transceiver. To install, insert the transceiver into the port
and gently press until it snaps in place as shown in
Figure 6-1
.

Note:
The SFP transceiver will fit only one way. If the SFP does not install
under gentle pressure, flip it over and try again.
