Cisco 1-Port 10-Gigabit Ethernet SPA XFP Connections

The following figure shows the cable type for use with the XFP optical transceiver module on the Cisco 1-Port
10-Gigabit Ethernet SPA.
Figure 6: LC-Type Cable for the XFP Optical Transceiver Modules
The 40-pin connector on the Cisco 1-Port 10-Gigabit Ethernet SPA is used for Resilient Packet Ring
Note
(RPR) connections. This feature is not supported in the Cisco IOS XR Release 3.4.1 and Cisco IOS Release
12.0(31)S.
Cisco 1-Port 10-Gigabit Ethernet SPA XFP Connections
The optical transceiver modules include an optical transmitter and receiver pair integrated with Clock and
Data Recovery (CDR) integrated circuits. The XFP modules provide high-speed serial links at the rate of
10.3125 Gbps (10 Gigabit Ethernet) on single-mode fiber (SMF). The transmit side recovers and re-times the
10-Gbps serial data and passes it to a laser driver. The laser driver biases and modulates a 1310-nm, 850 nm
or 155-nm laser, enabling data transmission over SMF through an LC connector. The receive side recovers
and re-times the 10-Gbps optical data stream from a photo detector transimpedance amplifier and passes it to
an output driver.
See the label on the XFP module for technology type and model.
