Connecting the SFP Ports

Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) modules are devices that plug into the router SFP connectors shown
in Figure
network.
The SFP module used on each port must match the wavelength specifications on the other end of the
cable, and the cable must not exceed the stipulated cable length for reliable communications.
Use only Cisco SFP transceiver modules with the router. Each SFP transceiver module supports the
Cisco Quality Identification (ID) feature which allows a Cisco switch or router to identify and validate
that the transceiver module is certified and tested by Cisco.
