Note:
A hardware restriction prevents the Xpedition 2000 from supporting configurations
consisting of:
– Two (2) 1000Base-SX or 1000Base-LX Gigabit modules.
– Two (2) 100Base-FX modules.
However, the router does support a configuration consisting of one (1) Gigabit module and
one (1) 100Base-FX module.

1000BASE-SX and 1000BASE-LX Expansion Modules

The 1000BASE-SX expansion module supports multimode fiber (MMF), and the
1000BASE-LX expansion module supports single-mode fiber (SMF) as well as MMF.
shows how to plug your fiber cable into a port on the 1000BASE-SX or 1000BASE-LX expansion
module. The procedure following the figure describes how to set up and insert the cables.

Figure 21. Plugging an ethernet cable into a 1000BASE-SX or 1000BASE-LX expansion
The 1000BASE-SX and 1000BASE-LX expansion modules use SC-style Media Interface
Connectors (MICs) to attach to SMF and/or MMF cables.
To attach the segment cables to your 1000BASE-SX or 1000BASE-LX expansion module, obtain a
SMF and/or MMF cable with an SC MIC and plug the MIC into the port connector. When you plug
the other end of the cable into another device, insure that the cable connected to the transmit port on
the XP-2000 is connected to the receive port on the other device. The receive port on the XP-2000
should be connected to the transmit port on the other device.
