Cabling the 10GBE Line Interface Ports

Fiber Specifications

The following table presents the fiber specifications. The Cisco SCE8000 may be ordered with either
multi-mode or single mode transceivers. The transceiver type is indicated on the front panel under the
ports. Note that all transceivers on any individual Cisco SCE8000 are the same mode, either 850nm
multi-mode OR 1310nm single mode.

Optical Device Maintenance

Any contamination of the fiber connection can cause failure of the component or failure of the whole
system. A particle that partially or completely blocks the core generates strong back reflections, which
can cause instability in the laser system. Inspection, cleaning, and reinspection are critical steps to take
before making fiber-optic connections.

How to Cable the 10GBE Line Interface Ports

Take the appropriate fiber optic cable (see
