Modular Optics Compatibility
Modular Optics Compatibility
Some SPAs implement small form-factor pluggable (SFP or XFP) optical transceivers to provide network
connectivity. The SFP and XFP modules are fiber-optic transceiver devices that mount to the front panel to
provide network connectivity.
Note
SFP modules are optics modules with speeds lower than 10 gigabits per second (Gb/s); XFP modules are
optics modules with speeds equal to or greater than 10 Gb/s.
Cisco Systems qualifies the SFP modules that can be used with SPAs.
Note
The SPAs accept only the optics modules listed as supported in this document. Each time an SFP or XFP
module is inserted into a SPA, a check is run. Only SFP and XFP modules that pass this check are usable.
shows the types of optics modules that are qualified for use with a SPA.
