Switches and blades that employ transceivers typically have them arranged in two rows, back to back. On most switches and the DCX-4S Backbone, that means that the bottom row of transceivers is upside down in relation to the top row. Time required The replacement procedure for an SFP or XFP takes less than five minutes. Items required • Replacement SFP, SFP+, or XFP • Optical transceiver extraction tool Most Brocade switches and backbones come with a transceiver extraction tool (Figure 1) and holster. The extraction tool is designed to remove transceivers from switches and blades where the space is limited.
