Installing a transceiver

Prerequisites

Before installing a transceiver, make sure that you read the following:

Procedure
  1. Install the FlexibleLOM riser assembly.
  2. Hold the transceiver by its sides and gently insert it in slot 1 of the FlexibleLOM until it clicks into place.
    Installing the transceiver

    Transceivers are keyed so that they can only be inserted in the correct orientation. If the transceiver does not fit easily into the port, you might have positioned it incorrectly. Reverse the orientation of the transceiver and insert it again.

  3. Remove the dust plug or protective cover from the transceiver.
  4. Connect a compatible network cable to the transceiver.
  5. If needed, see the transceiver documentation for the model-specific fastening mechanism applicable to the transceiver.

The installation is complete.
