Handling SFP+ transceivers 2 Handling SFP+ transceivers Before installing an SFP+ transceiver, be aware of the following: • The housing on the SFP+ transceiver includes an integral guide key that is designed to prevent you from inserting the transceiver incorrectly. • Use minimal pressure when you insert an SFP+ transceiver in the port. Forcing the transceiver into the port can cause damage to the transceiver or the SAN I/O Module port. • You can insert or remove an SFP+ transceiver while the Dell M1000e Blade Server Enclosure is powered on. • You must first insert the SFP+ transceiver in the port before connecting the cables. • You must remove the cable from the SFP+ transceiver before you remove the SFP+ transceiver from the SAN I/O Module.
