Managed switch with a fibre connection - can i unplug without a restart?

Do managed switches such as the netgear gs110tp with a 1000base fibre module (SX/LC) need restarting or any config changes when you unplug the fibre cable (OM3 50-125) then replug it back in later? Probably overthinking and it just works like normal Cat5e switches but wanted to check? I need to borrow a fibre cable from a working switch to test on a potentially faulty setup elsewhere in the building.

I have experience within networking just not much on the fibre side of it and the person who deals with this is out for next couple of days.
