Chapter 3 Overview: Cisco ASR 1000 Series Aggregation Services Routers Shared Port Adapters
10-Port Gigabit Ethernet SPA Overview
describes the 10-Port Gigabit Ethernet SPA LEDs.
10-Port Gigabit Ethernet SPA Connectors
The 10-Port Gigabit Ethernet SPA has ten electrical connectors that support SFP modules. Each port can
send and receive traffic using cabling appropriate for the SFP module inserted.
SFP Module Connections
The small form-factor pluggable (SFP) module is an input/output (I/O) device that plugs into the Gigabit
Ethernet optical slots on the 10-Port Gigabit Ethernet SPA, linking the port with a 1000BASE-X
fiber-optic network.
Note
The 10-Port Gigabit Ethernet SPA will only accept the SFP modules listed as supported in this
document. An SFP module check is run every time an SFP is inserted into the 10-Port Gigabit Ethernet
SPA and only SFP modules that pass this check will be usable by the 10-Port Gigabit Ethernet SPA.
SFP modules exist for technologies other than Gigabit Ethernet and for products other than the 10-Port
Gigabit Ethernet SPA. However, the information in this document pertains only to SFP modules that
plug into the 10-Port Gigabit Ethernet SPA ports.
See the
“SFP Module and Cabling Specifications for Gigabit Ethernet SPAs” section on page 3-25
for
SFP module options, module specifications, and cabling specifications.
For CWDM and DWDM SFP module specifications, see the
“CWDM and DWDM SFP Modules for the
Gigabit Ethernet SPAs” section on page 3-29
