physical injury to your body.
Safety standards
Ciena network elements conform to all relevant safety standards. The 6200
complies with the following safety standards:
• IEC/EN 60950-1—Information technology equipment - Safety, Part 1:
General requirements
• IEC 60825-1 and IEC 60825-2 Safety of Laser Products
• FDA 21 CFR 1040—Performance Standards for Light-Emitting Products
Laser radiation—optical transmission systems

Ciena optical products use laser or light-emitting diode (LED) sources that
emit light energy into optical fibers. This energy is within the red (visible) and
infrared (not visible) areas of the electromagnetic spectrum.

International standards
The IEC 60825 series of international standards cover the safety of laser and
LED products. The following list provides examples from the International
Electrotechnical Commission (IEC), Code of Federal Register (CFR), and
European Norm (EN) series of standards:
• IEC 60825-1, Safety of Laser Products—Part 1: Equipment Classification
and Requirements. This standard provides information about equipment
classification and on limit values for the safety of laser products.
Note: In Europe, the EN 60825 series of standards for CE marking
purposes evaluate the safety of laser and LED products. The EN 60825
series is technically equivalent to IEC 60825.
• IEC 60825-2, Safety of laser products Part 2: Safety of Optical Fiber

Communication Systems (OFCS). This standard provides information
about the safety of optical fiber communication systems.
• Regional standards such as the EN 60825 series: for example, British
Standard BS EN 60825-1, Safety of Laser Products, Equipment
Classification, Requirements and User’s Guide. These standards are
based on the IEC 60825 series.
Note: In Europe, the EN 60825 series of standards for CE marking
purposes evaluate the safety of laser and LED products. The EN 60825-1
series is technically equivalent to IEC 60825-1.
• In the United States, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), publishes
regulations 21 CFR 1010, Performance Standards for Electronics
Products: General and 21 CFR 1040 in the Code of Federal Register
(CFR). Regulations 21 CFR 1010 and 21 CFR 1040 contain laser safety
requirements equivalent to the European standards.
Note: FDA Laser Notice 50, issued by the US Department of Health and
Human Services (FDS), now states that there is no objection to the FDA
conforming with IEC labels as specified in IEC 60825. This is in an effort
on the part of the FDA to align its standards for laser products with
international standard IEC 60825.
Ciena ensures that all its products are compliant with either or both FDA and
IEC requirements, as required.
Laser radiation hazards

The maximum radiation hazard encountered when disconnecting an optical
fiber or during a fiber break does not exceed the accessible emission limit
(AEL) for Class 1 (IEC) or Class I (FDA). The worst case hazard level as
defined by IEC 60825 is Hazard Level 1, and defined by ANSI Z136.2 as a

Service Group 1. Because the system is intended to be installed in a restricted

access location, no additional engineering design features are required to
prevent exposure to the laser radiation.
Labeling
The 6200 system and circuit packs have been labeled in accordance with
IEC 60825-1, IEC 60825-2 and FDA Laser Notice 50.
Circuit pack labels

The optical interface has a laser aperture warning label located on the right
side of the 15G and 60G MRO XC cards. The element of a typical circuit pack
explanatory label is a laser warning symbol and a laser hazard level statement
in accordance with IEC 60825-2.
6200 chassis do not use lasers that exceed the AEL for Class 1, and,
therefore, do not require wavelength and optical power information at the
aperture. The information is provided in this chapter for every optical circuit
pack.
• wavelength, shown as a nominal value or dense wavelength division
multiplexing (DWDM) range of values, such as in the following examples:
— 1310 nm nominal indicates a single wavelength in the range of
1270 nm to 1360 nm
— 1550 nm nominal indicates a single wavelength in the range 1525 nm
to 1625 nm

Laser hazard label

Circuit pack explanatory label—Passive subassembly labels

A passive optical subassembly supplied and installed as part of a complete
Ciena optical communication system has the appropriate hazard level
assigned and labels attached. If Ciena does not supply and install the
subassembly, you must determine the maximum accessible optical output
level and assign the appropriate hazard level and labels.
Passive subassemblies (for example, optical patch panels, couplers and

splitters, and optical switches) can carry optical signals of any power
depending on the source optical fibers. These subassemblies require the
appropriate laser warning and explanatory labels that you normally place in
close proximity to the connectors or to the access panel. Ensure that following
requirements are met:
• Be aware of the optical powers at the inputs and outputs of the
subassemblies.
• Place the appropriate labels on subassemblies.
• Only qualified personnel, trained in optical safety, and who understand the
optical safety issues associated with the subassemblies, work on the
equipment.
Product-level regulatory label

All products containing optical circuit packs include product-level regulatory
labels. Ciena applies the regulatory label at the factory. This label includes
information about equipment compliance to safety standards and does not
have to be visible after installation of the equipment. This label also includes
all necessary approval marks.

The main product-level regulatory label is located on the side of the shelf. See
Figure 1-2 for an illustration of the optical equipment. The product -level
regulatory label is present on the rear back side of the electrical equipment.
Figure 1-2
Main product level regulatory labels on the rear side of the 6200 equipment
Using optical fibers

Optical fibers are either single mode or multiple mode. The information in the
following paragraphs applies to all optical fibers.
Handling optical fibers

When you handle optical fibers, you must take the following precautions:
• Wear safety glasses when you install optical fibers.
WARNING
Risk of laser radiation exposure
Do not look directly into the optical beam. Invisible light can
severely damage your eyes. Keep all optical connectors
capped.
• Do not look into the opening of an optical fiber, or the opening of an optical
fiber connector, if the optical fiber is active or the unit has the power turned
on.

• Avoid direct exposure to optical fiber ends or optical connector ends where
you can access the laser signal directly.
Precautions when splicing optical fibers

When you splice optical fibers, you must take the following precautions:
• Clean your hands after you handle optical fibers. Small pieces of glass are
not always visible and can damage your eyes.
WARNING
Risk of eye injury
If you have a piece of a glass in your eye, get medical
assistance immediately.
• Do not handle pieces of optical fiber with your fingers. Use tweezers or
adhesive tape to lift and discard any loose optical fiber ends.
• Wear rubber gloves when you clean optical connectors. The gloves
prevent direct contact with the isopropyl alcohol and prevent
contamination of the ferrules with skin oils.
• Place all optical fiber clippings in a plastic container provided for that
purpose.
• Handle optical fibers with caution. Place the optical fibers in a safe location
during installation.
• Protect all optical fiber connectors with clean dust caps at all times.
• Follow the manufacturer instructions when you use an optical test set.
Incorrect calibration or control settings can create hazardous levels of
radiation.
Splicing optical fibers
When you must look at a spliced optical fiber with a small magnifier, take the
following precautions:
• Power off all laser sources to the optical fiber or disconnect the remote
optical fiber end from the laser sources before you start splicing. Make
sure that all laser sources remain disconnected or have the power turned
off. The laser sources can be in a central office, on subscriber premises,
or in a remote location.
• Disconnect all optical test sets from the optical fiber before you start
splicing. The connections can be local or remote.
• Use only the optical instruments approved by your company.
Repairing optical fibers

When an accidental break occurs in the optical fiber, do the following:
• Report the location of the damaged optical fiber to both the central office
and the field repair personnel.

• Power down all laser sources to the optical fiber or disconnect the remote
optical fiber end from the laser sources. The laser sources can be in a
central office, on subscriber premises, or in a remote location.
Working with power

WARNING
Risk of electrical shock
The battery feeds can be at a high enough potential to
constitute a shock hazard. Read and understand the power
procedures you are performing. Take necessary precautions
and use the appropriate insulated tools when working with
power.
WARNING
Risk of personal injury, energy hazard
The battery feeds are capable of supplying very high current
which, during an unintentional short, can cause burns. Read
and understand the power procedures you are performing.
Take necessary precautions and use the appropriate insulated
tools when working with power.
When you install power feeds to the product input terminals or if you perform
routine power maintenance, make sure that you do the following:
• Read and understand the power procedures you are performing.
• Take the necessary precautions and use the appropriate insulated tools to
perform any tasks.
A continuously lit green LED at the faceplate on the PSU indicates that the
circuit pack is functioning correctly and is powered up. If the green LED on the
PSU circuit pack is lit, the power at the associated feeder is present and the
conditions can be assumed to be normal.
If the green LED on the Fan+OAM or Fan+OAMV2 is not lit, the possible
causes can include, but are not limited to:
• damaged or non-functional power supply unit
• damaged or non functional Fan+OAM or Fan+OAMV2 circuit pack
• feeder low voltage or power failure
• an over-current fail
The circuit breaker on the power supply unit is an electronic circuit breaker. A
circuit breaker cuts off the power to the circuit pack on high current condition.

Dissipating static electricity

The level of static electricity increases on your body when you move around
or come into contact with other charged surfaces. Excessive levels of static
electricity can damage equipment. You must either wear a properly
functioning heel grounder (that attaches to your leg and foot) and/or an
antistatic wrist-strap, or another personal grounding device when you work on
any of the following:
• network element chassis (including the metal frame and cover)
• cables connected to circuit packs
• circuit packs
Note 1: Before you connect to the ESD location for protection, ensure that
the earthing cables are grounded. For details, refer to “Connecting the
6200 to local safety ground” on page 5-8.
Note 2: Heel grounders or similar worn footwear attachments work when
the floor is designed to dissipate static electricity. If the properties of the
floor are unknown or in doubt, use a wrist-strap and make sure it is
connected to a piece of electrostatic discharge (ESD) grounding
equipment before proceeding with any maintenance or installation activity.
Any one of the previously mentioned grounding devices dissipate electrostatic
charges to the ground quickly and safely. Use grounding devices correctly to
eliminate the ESD threat you pose to the equipment.
When you wear an antistatic wrist-strap or a heel grounder, you must make
sure the grounding straps are in contact with a moist part of your skin.
Connect the grounding cord to the grounding plug on a grounded fixture of the

product you are working on, such as the shelf ESD jack. Grounded fixtures are
accessible on most Ciena products. See the ESD ground jacks shown in
Figure 1-3.
Figure 1-3
ESD jack location on the 6200 optical equipment
The following guidelines provide optimal electrostatic discharge protection:

• Install bays on conductive floor coverings.
• Provide conductive shoes, antistatic wrist-straps, and heel grounders to all
personnel working on the equipment.
• Maintain local environmental conditions so that relative humidity around
equipment to be serviced is in excess of 20% (preferably higher than
40%). This lowers the threat of developing damaging electrostatic levels.
• You can implement an ESD training and control program that educates
personnel on the hazards of ESD and simple mitigation procedures that
can easily be applied.

Preventing circuit pack damage, pluggable module and fan module

damage
Note: In this section, the generic term “module” is used to refer to circuit
packs or pluggable modules as applicable.
All modules are subject to damage by rough handling or by electrostatic

discharges. Review the following sections for more information on how to
prevent damage to modules. If Ciena ships modules separately from the
network element shelf, then these circuit packs can come in shielded
containers marked with the following symbol:

Handling, installing, storing, or replacing circuit packs, pluggable

modules and fan module
When you handle, install, or replace modules, you must take the following
precautions:
• Wear an antistatic wrist-strap, a heel grounder, or another personal
grounding device before you remove a module from its package or from
the shelf.
• Follow installation and removal procedures for each module. Make sure to
understand and perform each precautionary message in these
procedures (for example, opening/closing the latches of the circuit pack
simultaneously).
• Do not touch the solder side of the module, the pin connector, or the
components.
• Inspect all pin connectors on each module for damage before use.
• Inspect each module for damage before you insert the component into the
shelf.
• Store uninstalled modules separately in a shielded box.
• Do not stack modules on or against each other.
• Do not force modules into their packaging material.
• Do not store several modules in the same container.
• Allow each module to reach room temperature before you insert the
module into the shelf.

• Protect all optical connectors of the transmit (Tx) and receive (Rx) optical
modules with clean dust caps at all times.
• Store pluggable modules in their protective static-dissipative containers
(when not in use) to prevent damage to the exposed connector terminals.
Leave spare modules in the original shielded containers until you need the
modules. To prevent damage to modules in storage, follow procedures that
prevent:
• accumulation of dirt or dust on the pin connectors
• damage to the printed-circuit board or its components
• warpage (of printed-circuit boards stored in areas where the humidity can
exceed 95% and the temperature can exceed 70°C)
Transporting circuit packs and pluggable modules

When you transport modules, pack each module in its original shielded
container and padding, or in an electrostatically shielded bag. If you lose the
original material, place the module in a shielded bag and use another
container with sufficient padding.
Controlling equipment access

The 6200 system is intended to be installed in a restricted access location.
Outside North America, the location restriction must be in accordance with the
international safety standard IEC/EN 60950-1. In the context of these
requirements, a restricted access location is further defined as a location:
• where access is restricted to only trained personnel
• to which unsupervised members of the general public are not admitted
Controlling equipment environment

The maximum operational long-term ambient temperature of the system
location is 40°C. A temperature above 40°C is permissible (according to ETSI
EN 300 019-1-3 V2.1.2 for Environmental Class 3.1: Temperature controlled
locations) provided the probability of occurrence is less than 1%. A
temperature of 50°C is permissible but the duration should not exceed 72
continuous hours. A temperature of 65°C is permissible in case of extended

Procedure 6-3
Network element initialization
Use this procedure to:
• configure a network element in SDH or SONET mode
• configure the initial Ethernet IP address, router ID and the subnet mask
length and the network element name
• initialize the network element with a desired configuration
The SLAT page is displayed when:

• while initializing the network element
• when configuration gets corrupted
• when restore factory default option is chosen
Ethernet IP
Each network element has a network management system (NMS) interface,
which is a 10/100 network interface controller (NIC) port. Ethernet IP is the IP
address with which the network element communicates with the external
world.
Router ID
Network element communicate in the network over the embedded
communication channel (ECC), using the router ID. A network element can be
configured either as a gateway element (interconnecting two networks) or just
a pass-through network element.
After restoring configuration data in the network element, ensure to commit or

cancel the restored data before performing this procedure.
Note: If you need to configure the network element as a gateway network

element, then refer to the Planning Guide, S78-1002-110, for more
information.
Prerequisites
• Log into the network element WUI.
• Make sure your PC is correctly connected to the network element through
the Craft interface.

• The enable mirroring option on ingress/egress traffic enables the user to
select a destination port which is a probe port.
• On selecting a proper destination probe port the ingress/egress
(whichever or both is enabled on port mirroring) traffic will be available on
the probe port for analysis on a Ethernet test-set with network protocol

7-52 System testing

Action
Step Action
1 In the Test Sets (TS), provision the ports shown in Figure 7-11 on page 7-53
with the following:
• TS1: SA - SA1, DA - DA1
• TS3: SA - SA3, DA - DA3
2 Ensure that when packets are being transmitted from TS1, they are received
by TS3, and vice versa. This would require that the VCG-3 be provisioned
with some bandwidth. Also, all the three ports have to be in the same VLAN.
3 Go to Switches Port Mirroring. Click Provision a new PortMirroring from View
PortMirroring preview pane.
4 Select Enable from Port Mirroring Mode drop-down menu.
5 Select Eth-1 from Source Ports drop-down menu and Eth-2 from Destination
Port drop-down menu.
6 Provision the port Eth-2 as a port mirror to Eth-1. In the options given for the
traffic direction, select the option 'Both' which would mean that packets from
both the client side and the network side would get mirrored.
7 Now, if traffic is transmitted from TS1, a copy of the frames should be received
at TS2. The number of frames transmitted from Eth-1 should match the
number of frames received at TS2. On viewing the contents of the frames
received at Eth-2, the contents should reflect the same contents as the
frames transmitted from TS1.
8 Apply ingress port limiting on NEA-ETH1. Start transmission from TS1 with
the rate > port limiting rate, and ensure that the frames are received on TS2
at the rate, at which the ingress port limiting is applied.
9 Similarly, stop the transmission of traffic from TS1, and start the transmission
of traffic from TS3. As this traffic is also mirrored to Eth-2, the frames should
get mirrored towards Eth-2. The number of frames transmitted from TS3,
should match the number of frames received at Eth-2. As traffic is now
received from Eth-1-Egress side, all the traffic from egress side, which is
Testing Traffic Probeintended to go Eth-1 will get mirrored to Eth-2 before
entering the VLAN block of the switch that is if frames are untagged
transmitted from TS3, Eth-2(NE-1) will receive a single tagged frame with
PVID of NE2-ETH1.
10 Apply egress port limiting on NEA-ETH1. Ensure that CIR is less than the BW
provisioned. Start transmission from TS3 with the rate > port limiting rate, and
ensure that the frames are received on TS2 at the rate, at which the egress
port limiting is applied.
11 On TS2, start the transmission of frames towards the port Eth-2. The frames
should get dropped on the port as it is provisioned as a probe port.

System testing 7-53

Step Action
12 Similarly, any frames from other ports other than the mirror ports should also
get dropped at the Eth-2 port
13 In Eth-1, instead of selecting the direction of traffic mirroring as 'Both', select
the option 'Ingress'. In this case, traffic that is directed from the client side to
the ethernet port only will get mirrored onto the port Eth-2.
14 Frames that are transmitted from TS1 to TS3 will be mirrored to Eth-2.
Frames that are being transmitted from TS3 to TS1 should not be mirrored
onto Eth-2.
15 Similarly, if the traffic direction is selected as 'Egress', then traffic from TS3 to
TS1 will get mirrored onto Eth-2. Traffic from TS1 to Ix3 will not get mirrored
onto Eth-2
16 Ensure that if other ports in the same VLAN are configured to carry traffic,
then that traffic does not get mirrored on Eth-2, if the port mirror is not
configured for that port.
17 Check that reserved MAC addresses like multicast BPDUs, pause frames are
not mirrored.
18 All configuration done on a node should get deleted on changing mode from
dot1q to Q-in-Q or the other way around. But port mirroring configuration
persists.

Step Action
1 Install the MIB browser in the system.

2 Run the MIB browser client and this should show a window as shown in
3 Load the MIB file to the MIB browser. The file which needs to be loaded is the
omeTraps.mib file which would be available with the software CD. The file
can be loaded by using the option File Load MIB.
4 Expand the MIB tree to get the different parameters which are present in the
MIB. In the tree select the stc option of the MIB.
5 Enter the IP address of the network element which needs to be tested in the
Address box. Click Advanced option present in the MIB browser. Input the
following properties of the SNMP agent:
• Port - Set the SNMP agent port to 161, since the network element would
be listening to SNMP requests on this TCP port.
• Read Community - Set this to the value which is set for the SNMP
community in the network element.
• SNMP version - Select the SNMP version which is required. The network
element supports both SNMP v1 and SNMP v2, but not SNMP v3.
6 Login to the network element WUI, and click Security in the Navigation
menu. Select the Settings option in this menu. Set the SNMP agent to enable
(the default will be disable) and set the community string to a value which is
needed. Ensure that the community string is the same in both the MIB
browser and the network element.
7 Select the stc option in the MIB browser and click Get Subtree in the
operations menu. This will list all the parameters which is exposed on the
network element for an SNMP browser to browse. If any error is thrown,
contact your next level of support.
8 Ethernet PM parameters for which SNMP Get support is available is shown
in Table 7-14 on page 7-57. These counters are available under the object
OID 37, which corresponds to the Ethernet port.
9 The following commands given in step 10 on page 7-56, step 11 on page
7-56, and step 12 on page 7-56 can be tested using the iReasoning MIB
browser.

a. Set the OID in the iReasoning MIB browser to be the following;
.1.3.6.1.4.1.8255.1.2.1.2.37.1.1.(OID).(Rate).(Chassis).(Slot).(Port).
The value which is retrieved from the SNMP query would be the same as
the one which is seen in the UI for that particular parameter. There would
be no discrepancy between the value and the actual rate shown on the
NE UI.
b. On executing the operation Get from the browser, the browser should
return the value of the counter which corresponds to the OID which is
mentioned in step a.
11 Getting the previous 15 minutes interval counter values for a particular
attribute for a particular Ethernet port:
a. Set the OID in the iReasoning MIB browser to be the following:
.1.3.6.1.4.1.8255.1.2.1.2.37.2.1.(OID).(Rate).(Chassis).(Slot).(Port).(Int
erval Number) The value which is retrieved from the SNMP query would
be the same as the one which is seen in the UI for that particular
parameter. There would be no discrepancy between the value and the
actual rate shown on the NE UI.
b. On executing this operation with the correct interval number starting from
1, the network element would return the historical counter value for the
OID which is mentioned in step a.
12 Getting the previous day interval counter values for a particular attribute for a
particular Ethernet port:
a. Set the OID in the iReasoning MIB browser to be the following;
.1.3.6.1.4.1.8255. 1.2.1.2.37.3.1.(OID).(Rate).(Chassis).(Slot).(Port).1
b. On executing the get operation in the iReasoning browser, the network
element would return the previous day counter for that attribute which is
mentioned in the OID.

Network reconfiguration 8-
This chapter contains procedures for adding and deleting a network element
in a Sub Network Connection Protection/Unidirectional Path Switched Ring
(SNCP/UPSR) network.
SNCP/UPSR
SNCP/UPSR is path protection type that is initiated in the path terminating
equipment. In SNCP/UPSR, protection is initiated on a failure in the path. It is
required to create two paths for each circuit, one working and the other
protection. Traffic in the source network element is bridged on both paths, the
working and the protection. The better signal of the two is selected by the
destination network element. SNCP/UPSR is a dedicated protection
mechanism.
If the network element is equipped with two 15G MRO XC circuit packs, then
select STM-4/OC-12, or STM-16/OC-48 for the node capacity of the network
element. If the network element is equipped with two 60G MRO XC circuit
packs, then the rate is STM-64/OC-192.

Cleaning connectors 9-
This chapter describes how to clean fiber-optic connectors. Ciena

recommends that you always clean fiber-optic connectors before connecting
to transmission equipment, test equipment, patch panels, or other connectors.
Connector cleaning
• ensures that fiber-optic assemblies work at their correct power level, by
removing any dust or particles that could lead to optical power attenuation.
• prevents damage to alignment sleeves and adapter housings.
Precautions
CAUTION
Risk of shelf malfunction
Ciena recommends that you do not use cellular phones at any
6200 site. The use of cellular phones in proximity to 6200
equipment can cause shelf malfunction.
CAUTION
Do not look into the end of fiber-optic connectors or into
faceplate connectors of installed circuit packs. The light source
used in fiber-optic devices can damage your eyes.
CAUTION
Risk of signal degradation
Do not allow the solvent to dry on the ferrule. Dried solvent
leaves a residual film on ferrule surfaces that prevents the
fiber-optic assembly from working correctly.

9-2 Cleaning connectors
CAUTION
Risk of connectors contamination
To reduce the risk of oil contamination on connectors, do not
use commercial compressed air or hose air when cleaning
connectors and receptacles. Always use canned compressed
gas to remove excess dust and dirt.
Do the appropriate cleaning process before re-mating

connectors with their receptacles.
To prevent contamination, make sure you cover the optical

faceplate connectors of all installed circuit packs and all the
unconnected fiber connector ferrules with dust caps.
To avoid applying any oil from your fingers or other

contaminants to the end face of the ferrule, handle connectors
carefully.
DANGER
Wear safety glasses when you work with the canned
compressed gas to avoid getting dust in your eyes.
Wear safety glasses when working with isopropyl alcohol.

Isopropyl alcohol can cause eye irritation on contact.
To avoid extended inhalation of alcohol vapors, use only small

amounts of alcohol and work in a clean and ventilated area.
To avoid direct skin contact with the isopropyl alcohol and to

avoid contaminating the ferrules with skin oils, it is preferable
to wear vinyl gloves.

Procedure 10-6
Installing and removing pluggable modules
Use this procedure to install or remove a small-form factor pluggable
(SFP/XFP) module to or from an optical interface. See Figure 10-2 on page
10-16 for an illustration of an SFP/XFP module.
Prerequisites
• Make sure you obtain dust caps for all SFPs/XFP. Dust cap is required to
prevent damage to SFPs/XFP.
• Make sure you have the correct type of SFP/XFP and the required number
of modules. You require one module for each port.
• Make sure you have a photocopy of the tables in the ordering chapter of
the Planning Guide, S78-1002-110.
• For the pluggable modules supported by each optical interface circuit
pack, refer to the chapter on ordering and system engineering rules of the
Planning Guide, S78-1002-110.

CAUTION
Risk of static damage
Wear an antistatic wrist strap and foot straps to protect
the shelf and the equipment from static damage.
Connect the wrist strap to an available earth point.
4 Make sure that the latch on the SFP/XFP module is closed (folded back in the
SFP module). See Figure 10-3 on page 10-16.
Note: If the latch is not closed when you insert the SFP/XFP module, the
module can jam inside the receptacle in the circuit pack faceplate.


Step Action
5 While holding the SFP/XFP module with the side where the electrical
connections are exposed to your left, slide the SFP/XFP module into one of
the receptacles in the circuit pack faceplate. See Figure 10-3 on page 10-16.
Note: The SFP/XFP module must slide easily into its receptacle until it locks
into place. If it does not slide easily, verify the orientation of the module. The
orientation of the module is different for XFP and SFP.
