APPLICATIONS
Enterprise and Federal
High-density fiber-based 10- and 100-Mbps Ethernet modules offer enterprises and military operations the ability to deploy fiber to the desktop to
maximize security of their network. The Cisco Catalyst 6500 100BASE-X and 100BASE-FX modules also can be deployed in areas where
customers need long-distance (greater than 550m and up to 2 km) connection over existing multimode fiber where Gigabit Ethernet is not an option.
Through the support of modular SFPs optics, the 48-port 100BASE-X module offers flexibility by allowing mix and match of different optics types,
allowing smaller branches to use 100BASE-FX over multimode fiber to the desktop and 100BASE-LX over single-mode fiber to the main campus
building. For all these applications, the Cisco Catalyst 6500 100BASE-X module maximizes customers' investment protection by allowing them to
purchase and deploy SFP optics as they grow their network.
