Connecting and Disconnecting Gigabit Ethernet Cables
To connect a gigabit ethernet cable to a mini-GBIC transceiver port:
1. If you have not already done so, remove the two plastic fiber protection caps
from the ends of the cable.
2. Hold the cable connector between your thumb and forefinger, with your thumb
on top and your forefinger underneath. (Do not press the release on top of the
connector.)
3. Slide the connector into the transceiver port until it clicks into place. Because
the fit is close, you might have to apply some force to insert the connector. To
avoid damaging the connector, apply force evenly and gently.

CAUTION: If you push in the levers before they contact the ridge on the bay wall,
the locking tabs click into place prematurely so that you cannot seat the interface
module properly.
