Installation Guide
QX-S5500 Series Ethernet Switches
A 2-port 10G BASE-XFP interface module provides two 10 Gbps SFP+ ports. You can
insert an SFP+ transceiver into the port to connect it to another SFP+ port through an
optical fiber, or an SFP+ cable provided by NEC.
For details about the supported SFP+ transceivers and SFP+ cables, refer to Table 1-15.
