Step 4
To install the X2 transceiver, do the following:
a. Insert the X2 transceiver into the transceiver socket on the supervisor engine faceplate. (See
Figure 3-43, top view.) Continue sliding the X2 transceiver into the socket until the X2 transceiver
EMI gasket is flush against the system module faceplate. The X2 transceiver connector is now mated
to the socket connector.
b. Verify that the X2 transceiver latches are fully engaged and secure by sliding the transceiver latching
sleeve toward the supervisor engine faceplate. (See Figure 3-43, bottom view.)
Caution
If the latches are not fully engaged, you may accidently disconnect the X2 transceiver.
