8683XZR module

The 868XZR module supports both LAN and WAN operation (10.3 Gb/s
LAN PHY and 9.9 Gb/s WAN PHY). The 8683XZR module

Ethernet small form factor-pluggable (XFP) transceivers. The port operates
in full-duplex mode.
The 8683XZR module includes three forwarding engine lanes. Each lane
supports 10 Gb/s bidirectional traffic. All three ports can run concurrently
at 10 Gb/s.
The 8683XZR module is not supported in the 8003 chassis with Ethernet
Routing Switch 8600 Software Release 4.1.
For Release 4.1, Nortel recommends installing only one 10GBase-ZR/ZW
due to cooling limitations on the 8683XLR and XZR. Nortel further
recommends the installation of the XFP only in Port 1. A 10GBase-SR,
-LR/LW, or ER/EW can be installed in one or both of the remaining ports.
