Installing and Replacing the 4GE SSM

Removing the SFP Module

Note The following is supported on the ASA 5510, ASA 5520, ASA 5540, and ASA 5550.

The SFP modules have different types of latching devices used to detach the SFP module from a port.

The following are the different types of modules:

• Mylar Tab Module

• Actuator/Button SFP Module

• Bale-Clasp SFP Module

• Plastic Collar Module

To remove the SFP module, perform the following steps:

Step 1 Disconnect all cables from the SFP.

Warning

Because invisible laser radiation may be emitted from the aperture of the port when no cable is

connected, avoid exposure to laser radiation and do not stare into open apertures.

Statement 70

Caution The latching mechanism used on many SFPs locks the SFP into place when cables are connected. Do not

pull on the cabling in an attempt to remove the SFP.

Step 2 Disconnect the SFP latch as shown in Figure A-5.

Note SFP modules use various latch designs to secure the module in the SFP port. 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.

Step 3

Grasp the SFP on both sides and remove it from the port.
