SFP Transceiver Removal and Replacement
You can remove and replace the SFP transceivers while the router is operating
without damaging the router or the transceiver. However, this interrupts
transmission on the affected port until you install the transceiver.
To remove a transceiver, gently press the transceiver into the port to release
the tension, then pull the release tab or lever and remove the transceiver.
Different transceiver manufacturers have different release mechanisms.
Consult the documentation for your transceiver.
To install a transceiver, insert it into the port and gently press until it snaps in
place.
NOTE:
The SFP transceiver fits only one way. If the SFP does not install under
gentle pressure, flip it over and try again.
