Replacing an Optical or Electrical Module

Before removing or installing an optical or electrical module, ensure that no fiber jumpers are connected to the optical ports or no network cables are connected to the electrical ports on the module.

Replacing an Optical Module

Cover unconnected optical modules with dust plugs. Unplug the optical fibers from the optical module before removing it. Install or remove optical fibers carefully to avoid damaging the fiber connectors.

Replacing an Optical Module

Ensure that the optical module is correctly oriented and gently push it into the optical port until you hear a click. The new optical module must have the same optical parameters as the remote optical

Replacing an Optical Module

Optical modules are electrostatic-sensitive components; therefore, you must take ESD protective measures when replacing optical modules. Do not insert an optical module backwards. If an optical

Typical Troubleshooting Cases of Optical Module

General Optical Module Troubleshooting Procedure Check whether an optical module is a bogus one. An optical module delivered by Huawei is uniquely identified by an SN. If two or more optical

What Is an Optical Module

An optical module is a device for converting electrical signals to optical signals and vice versa, widely used in telecommunications and data centers.

Installing Optical Modules

The device must use optical or copper modules recommended on the configurator because non-Huawei-certified optical or copper modules cannot ensure transmission reliability and may affect service

Replacing an Optical Module

Before replacing an optical module, determine in which cabinet and chassis the optical module is installed, find the optical module in the chassis, and attach a label to the optical module.

Replacing an Optical Module

Release the locking clip on the fiber connector, gently push the fiber connector inward, and then pull out the optical fiber. After removing the optical fibers from the optical module, cover the connectors with

Optical Module Installation and Replacement

The method used to install a copper transceiver module is the same, except that the copper transceiver module connects to a network cable instead of optical fibers. Never look directly into an optical

Replacing an Optical Module

Impact on the System Replacing an optical module will interrupt services on the corresponding optical fiber. If any other host path is available, replacing an optical module will not affect services.

Replacing an Optical Module

Before replacing an optical module, determine in which cabinet and chassis the optical module is installed, find the optical module in the chassis, and attach a label on the optical module.

Replacing an Optical Module

Huawei-certified optical modules are strongly recommended because non-Huawei-certified optical modules cannot ensure transmission reliability and may affect service stability. Optical modules are

Displaying Optical Module Information

When certifying an optical module, Huawei comprehensively verifies the functions of the optical module to ensure the optical module quality. The functions include the installation and removal, transmit and

Replacing an Optical Module

Huawei is not responsible for any problem caused by the use of non-Huawei-certified optical modules and will not fix such problems. Replacing an optical module interrupts service transmission on the
