Cisco Cisco 40 Gigabit Modules Guia Da Instalação

You need these tools to install the 40-Gigabit QSFP+ transceiver modules:

Wrist strap or other personal grounding device to prevent ESD occurrences.

Antistatic mat or antistatic foam to set the transceiver on.

Fiber-optic end-face cleaning tools and inspection equipment. 

For complete information on inspecting and cleaning fiber-optic connections, see the white-paper 
document at this URL: 

The QSFP+ transceiver module can have either a bail-clasp latch or a pull-tab latch. Installation 
procedures for both types of latches are provided.

The QSFP+ transceiver module is a static-sensitive device. Always use an ESD wrist strap or similar 
individual grounding device when handling QSFP+ transceiver modules or coming into contact with 
system modules.

To install an QSFP+ transceiver module, follow these steps:

Attach an ESD wrist strap to yourself and a properly grounded point on the chassis or the rack.

Remove the QSFP+ transceiver module from its protective packaging.

Check the label on the QSFP+ transceiver module body to verify that you have the correct model for your 
network.

For optical QSFP+ transceivers, remove the optical bore dust plug and set it aside. 

For transceivers equipped with a bail-clasp latch: 

Keep the bail-clasp aligned in a vertical position. 

Align the QSFP+ transceiver in front of the module’s transceiver socket opening and carefully slide 
the QSFP+ transceiver into the socket until the transceiver makes contact with the socket electrical 
connector. (See 

For QSFP+ transceivers equipped with a pull-tab:

Hold the transceiver so that the identifier label is on the top.

Align the QSFP+ transceiver in front of the module’s transceiver socket opening and carefully slide 
the QSFP+ transceiver into the socket until the transceiver makes contact with the socket electrical 
connector.
