Caution 1: The SFP and SFP+ transceiver modules are static
sensitive devices. Always use an ESD wrist strap or similar individual
grounding device when handling the transceiver modules or coming in contact
with modules, I use the Cisco SFP GLC-SX-MMD and SFP-10G-LR most time on the network.
Caution 2: Be careful when removing GLC-GE-100FX SFPs from a
WS-C3750G-12S-S switch. The SFP transceiver module temperature might go over
160°F (70°C) and be too hot to touch with bare hands.
If you are
removing an SFP or SFP+ transceiver module, follow these steps:
Step 1 Attach an ESD-preventive wrist strap to your wrist and to the ESD ground
connector or a bare metal surface on your chassis.
Step 2 Disconnect the network fiber-optic cable or network copper cable from
the transceiver module connector. For optical transceiver modules, immediately
reinstall the dust plugs in the transceiver module's optical bores and the
fiber-optic cable LC connectors.
Tip:
For reattachment of fiber-optic cables, note which connector plug is send (TX)
and which is receive (RX).
Step 3 Release and remove the transceiver module from the socket connector, as
shown in Figure 1 , Figure 2, Figure 3, or
•If the SFP transceiver module has a Mylar
tab latch, pull the tab gently in a slightly downward direction until the
transceiver disengages from the socket connector, and then pull the SFP transceiver
module straight out. Do not twist or pull the Mylar tab because you could
detach it from the SFP transceiver module.

•If the SFP transceiver module has an
actuator button latch, gently press the actuator button on the front of the SFP
transceiver module until it clicks and the latch mechanism releases the SFP
transceiver module from the socket connector. Grasp the actuator button between
your thumb and index finger, and carefully pull the SFP transceiver module
straight from the module slot.

Latch
•If the SFP transceiver module has a bail
clasp latch, pull the latch out and down to eject the SFP transceiver module
from the socket connector. If the bail clasp latch is obstructed and you cannot
use your index finger to open it, use a small, flat-blade screwdriver or other
long, narrow instrument to open the bail clasp latch. Grasp the SFP transceiver
module between your thumb and index finger, and carefully remove it from the
socket.

Bail Clasp Latch
•The SFP+ transceiver uses a bail clasp
style latch which is slightly different than the bail clasp latch for the SFP
transceiver. The SFP+ transceiver bail clasp has a small tab protruding down
from the bail clasp handle To release the SFP+ bail clasp, push the small tab
up and outwards with your index finger to release the bail clasp. Grasp the
SFP+ transceiver between your thumb and index finger and carefully remove the
transceiver from the socket.

Step 4 Place the removed transceiver module in an antistatic bag or other
protective environment.
