Installing a Network Module
• Do not remove the dust plugs from the fiber-optic SFP/SFP+/SFP28/QSFP modules or the rubber caps
from the fiber-optic cable until you connect the cable. The plugs and caps protect the module ports and
cables from contamination and ambient light.
• Removing and installing a network module can shorten its useful life. Do not remove and insert a network
module more often than is necessary.
• To prevent ESD damage, follow your normal board and component handling procedures when connecting
cables to the switch and other devices.
Procedure
Step 1
Attach an ESD-preventive wrist strap to your wrist and to an earth ground surface.
Step 2

Verify the correct orientation of your module before installing it. Incorrect installation can damage
the module.
Do not install the network module with connected cables or installed SFP/SFP+/SFP28 modules.
Always remove any cables and modules before you install the network module.
A module interface might become error-disabled when a network module with connected fiber-optic
cables is installed or removed. If an interface is error-disabled, you can reenable the interface by
using the shutdown and no shutdown interface configuration commands.
