CAUTION: The dual personality ports on the Switch 5500G-EI enable you
to activate an RJ-45 port or an SFP port or a mixture of both (for example,
on the 24 Port Switch, you can activate the RJ-45 ports 23 and 24 and
the SFP ports 21 and 22 at the same time). If you try to activate the same
dual personality RJ-45 port and SFP port (for example, RJ-45 port 23 and
SFP port 23 at the same time), the SFP port will take priority.

Removing an SFP
Transceiver
If you wish to remove the transceiver (it is not necessary to power-down
your Switch):
1 Disconnect the cable from the transceiver.
2 Move the wire release lever downwards until it is pointing toward you.
3 Pull the wire release lever toward you to release the catch mechanism;
the transceiver will then easily slide out.
