Solution
Cisco transceiver modules: Cisco 10GBASE SFP+ modules.
Product overview: The Cisco 10GBASE SFP+ modules offer users a wide variety of 10 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity options for data center, enterprise wiring closet, and service provider transport applications.
Compatible Cisco SFP+ Copper (Twinax) cable and SFP+ Transceiver
Features and benefits:
Main features of Cisco 10GBASE SFP+ modules include:
- Smallest 10G form factor.
- Supports 10GBASE Ethernet.
- Hot-swappable input/output device that plugs into an Ethernet SFP+ port of a Cisco switch.
- Provides flexibility of interface choice.
- Supports pay-as-you-populate model.
- Supports digital optical monitoring capability.
- Supports the Cisco quality identification (ID) feature that enables a Cisco switch to identify whether the module is certified and tested by Cisco.
- Optical interoperability with 10GBASE XENPAK, 10GBASE X2, and 10GBASE XFP interfaces on the same link.
SFP-10G-SR
The Cisco 10GBASE-SR SFP module supports a link length of 26m on standard Fiber Distributed Data Interface (FDDI)-grade multimode fiber (MMF). Using 2000 MHz*km MMF (OM3), up to 300m link lengths are possible.
SFP-10G-ER:
The Cisco 10GBASE-ER Module supports a link length of up to 40 kilometers on standard single-mode fiber (SMF, G.652.
SFP-10G-LRM
The Cisco 10GBASE-LRM Module supports link lengths of 220m on standard Fiber Distributed Data Interface (FDDI) grade multimode fiber (MMF). To ensure that specifications are met over FDDI-grade, OM1 and OM2 fibers, the transmitter should be coupled through a mode conditioning patch cord. No mode conditioning patch cord is required for applications over OM3.
The Cisco 10GBASE-LRM Module also supports link lengths of 300m on standard single-mode fiber (SMF, G.652).
SFP-10G-LR:
The Cisco 10GBASE-LR Module supports a link length of 10 kilometers on standard single-mode fiber (SMF, G.652).
FET-10G:
The Cisco FET-10G Fabric Extender Transceiver support link lengths up to 100m on laser-optimized OM3 multimode fiber. It is supported on fabric links only from a Nexus 2000 to a Cisco parent switch. Note this product is not orderable invididually.
Cisco SFP+ Copper:
Cisco SFP+ Copper Twinax cables are suitable for very short distances and offer a highly cost-effective way to connect within racks and across adjacent racks. Cisco offers passive Twinax cables in lengths of 1, 3 and 5 meters, and active Twinax cables in lengths of 7 and 10 meters.
