2. Grasp the tab and gently pull to release the transceiver from the socket.
3. Slide the transceiver out of the socket.
4. Place the QSFP+ or QSFP28 transceiver module into an antistatic bag.

This section provides the installation, cabling, and removal instructions for the CPAK pluggable optical
transceiver modules.
CPAK Module Overview
The Cisco CPAK transceiver module is a hot-swappable input/output device that plugs into a Cisco port on
the 4-port and 8-port 100-Gigabit Ethernet line cards (See 4-Port 100-Gigabit Ethernet Line Card with CPAK,
on page 38 and 8-Port 100-Gigabit Ethernet Line Card with CPAK, on page 38).The modules have a total
of 82 pins (40 pins on the top row and 42 on the bottom row) on the electrical interface and either a multifiber
push-on (MPO) or duplex SC connector on the optical interface.
The following types of CPAK modules or adapters are supported:
• CPAK 100GBASE-SR10
Delivers 100-Gbps links over 24-fiber ribbon cables terminated with MPO/MTP connectors. It can also
be used in 10 x 10-Gbps mode along with ribbon-to-duplex-fiber breakout cables for connectivity to ten
10GBASE-SR optical interfaces and has the option to breakout to 2X40G-Gbps interfaces. It supports
link lengths of 100m and 150m on laser-optimized OM3 and OM4 multifiber cables. OTN rates are also
supported.
• CPAK 100GBASE-SR4
Supports link lengths of up to 70m (100m) over OM3 (OM4) Multimode Fiber with MPO-12 connectors.
It primarily enables high-bandwidth 100G optical links over 12-fiber parallel fiber terminated with
MPO-12 multifiber connectors. CPAK-100GE-SR4 supports 100GBase Ethernet rate. This module
supports 100G LAN mode only; OTN modes and breakout are not supported.
