Cisco MDS 9216 Switch Hardware Installation Guide
C-8
The Cisco MDS 9216 Switch is compatible with SFP transceivers and cables that
have LC connectors. Each transceiver must match the transceiver on the other end
of the cable in terms of wavelength, and the cable must not exceed the stipulated
cable length for reliable communications.
Cisco SFP transceivers provide the uplink interfaces, laser send (TX), and laser
receive (RX), and support 850 to 1610 nm nominal wavelengths, depending upon
the transceiver. For detailed specifications, refer to the documentation provided
with the transceivers.
Use only Cisco SFP transceivers on the Cisco MDS 9216 Switch. Each Cisco SFP
transceiver is encoded with model information that enables the switch to verify
that the SFP transceiver meets the requirements for the switch. Refer to the release
notes for the list of specific supported SFP transceivers.
