Cabling
The C4110 can be used in telecom and enterprise applications where links supporting data rates from
1Gig to 10Gig require fiber extension or where 10Gig links require an interface between two fiber
networks. It performs 3R (re-amplify, re-shape, re-time) signal regeneration. The S4110 is protocol
‘agnostic’, supporting a wide variety of protocols in a network; from 1 to 11.5Gbps, including 10G LAN,
10G WAN, 10G Fiber Channel, SONET OC192, 10G OTN (G.709), 1/2/4/8 Gig Fiber Channel, 1 Gig
Ethernet, or Sonet OC-48. The fiber length and type is defined by the SFP+ module inserted.

The figure above shows cabling a C4110 to an S4110. The S4110 cabling procedure is provided below.
1. Locate a fiber cable with male, two-stranded TX to RX connectors installed at both ends. See
“Cable
Specifications
” on page
15
for details.
2. Connect the fiber cable to the 10GE SFP+ fiber port (Port 2 labeled
10GE SFP+
) on the C4110:
•
Connect the male TX cable connector to the female TX connector.
•
Connect the male RX cable connector to the female RX connector.
3. Connect the fiber cables to the 10GE fiber port on the other device per the device requirements.
