A two 10 Gigabit Ethernet module contain two physical ports, through which you can connect your
BigIron RX Series switch to other network devices at a speed of 10 Gigabits.
Into a physical port, you must insert a fiber-optic module provided by Brocade. The XFP-compliant
fiber-optic modules provide an optical transceiver or physical medium dependent (PMD) interface
for single mode fiber that can be used with the LAN physical layer (PHY).
The following optic modules versions are available from Brocade:
