Installing Cisco Interface Cards in Cisco Access Routers Installing Other Accessories in Cisco Interface Cards Installing Other Accessories in Cisco Interface Cards Certain Cisco interface cards support a variety of additional modules, such as small form-factor pluggable modules (SFPs). Installing and Removing SFPs SFPs are hot-swappable Ethernet interfaces that can be installed directly into Cisco interface cards. The following Cisco interface cards currently support SFPs: • HWIC-1GE-SFP This section describes a generic installation and removal procedure. SFPs use various latch designs (see Figure 31) to secure the module in the SFP port. Note Latch designs are not linked to SFP model or technology type; for information on the SFP technology type and model, see the label on the side of the SFP. To install an SFP in a Cisco interface card, perform the following steps: Step 1 Install the interface card in the router. (See the "Installing Cisco Interface Cards in Cisco Access Routers" section on page 5.) Warning Because invisible laser radiation may be emitted from the aperture of the port when no fiber cable is connected, avoid exposure to laser radiation and do not stare into open apertures. Statement 125 Step 2 Slide the SFP into the housing on the interface card until it is locked into position. (See Figure 30.) The SFP is designed to prevent improper insertion. Tip If the SFP uses a bale-clasp latch (see Figure 31), the bale-clasp handle should be on top of the SFP in the closed position for proper seating of the SFP module.
