  • Page 21 For supported X2 transceiver media types, refer to: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/interfaces_modules/transceiver_modules/compatibility/matrix/OL_697 4.html Because of interoperability issues, Cisco does not support X2s purchased from third-party vendors. Caution Cisco 1000BASE-LX/LH interfaces fully comply with the IEEE 802.3z 1000BASE-LX standard. However, their higher optical quality allows them to reach 10 km over SMF cable instead of the 5 km specified in the standard.

Step 7 Immediately attach the network interface cable SC connectors to the 10-Gigabit Ethernet X2 transceiver.
  • Page 24 SFP connections to other network devices. A total of four SFPs is possible. You can use any combination of supported SFP modules. Use only Cisco SFP modules on your Cisco device. Each SFP module has an internal serial EEPROM that is encoded with security information. This encoding provides a way for Cisco to identify and validate that the SFP module meets the requirements for the device.
  • Page 25 Key slots SFPs provide duplex single-mode and multimode connections in supported devices. For cable specifications for fiber-optic SFP module ports, refer to: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/interfaces_modules/transceiver_modules/installation/note/78_15160 .html When using shorter distances of single-mode fiber cable, you might need to insert an inline optical Note attenuator in the link to avoid overloading the receiver.

  • Page 27 CWDM SFPs come in eight wavelengths that range from 1470 nm to 1610 nm. Color markings on the devices identify the wavelength to which the Gigabit Ethernet channel is mapped. Specifications for CWDM SFPs are at: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/interfaces_modules/transceiver_modules/installation/note/78_15160 .html Fiber-Optic Connectors Fiber-optic cable connectors can be damaged by improper cleaning and connection procedures.
  • Page 28 Fiber-Optic Connectors Use extreme care when removing or installing connectors so that you do not damage the connector Caution housing or scratch the end-face surface of the fiber. Always install protective covers on unused or disconnected components to prevent contamination. Always clean fiber connectors before installing them.
