Rs Modules - Avaya 8800 Planning And Engineering, Network Design

Hardware fundamentals and guidelines
For module specifications and installation procedures, see Avaya Ethernet Routing Switch
8800/8600 Installation — Modules, (NN46205–304).
For optical transceiver specifications and installation procedures, see Avaya Ethernet Routing
Switch 8800/8600 Installation — SFP, SFP+, XFP, and OADM Hardware Components, (NN46205–
320).
8812XL information and recommendations
The 8812XL SFP+ I/O module supports 12 SFP+ ports at 10Gbps. For this module to operate
properly, ensure that you are running a minimum software version of 7.1.3.
Note:
The 8812XL supports only Avaya-qualified 10Gbps SFP+ pluggable Ethernet transceivers.
1Gbps transceivers are not supported, even if Avaya-qualified.
If you plug a 1Gbps SFP onto the 8812XL I/O interface, the port remains offline and the system
displays the following message in the system logs and on the console.
CPU# [date time] COP-SW INFO Slot #: 1G SFP detected in 10G SFP+ port
#. Port offline.
Passive DACs are not supported but may be recognized. If so, they will display as 10GbOther.
However, they will not pass data.

RS modules

RS modules include the 8648GTRS, the 8612XLRS, the 8634XGRS, and the 8648GBRS. RS
modules provide support for a variety of technologies, interfaces, and feature sets and provide 10
Gbit/s port rates. RS modules require the high-speed cooling module and the 8895 SF/CPU or 8692
SF/CPU with SuperMezz.
In chassis equipped with RS modules, you can use 8005AC, 8005DI AC, 8004AC, or 8004DC
power supplies. RS modules are interoperable with R modules.
The following figure shows typical uses for RS modules.
