Gigabit Ethernet SFP Modules
The 40-Port Gigabit Ethernet line card and the Gigabit Ethernet ports of the 2-Port 10-GE + 20-Port GE
combination line card use SFP modules. The Gigabit Ethernet laser optical transceiver module is a
field-replaceable small form-factor pluggable (SFP) module that plugs into the receptacle (or cage)
located on the line card and provides the Gigabit Ethernet optical interface (see
module has two optical interfaces—laser transmit (TX) and laser receive (RX)—and an electrical
interface (to the line card).
The SFP+ modules used on the 16-Port 10-Gigabit Ethernet oversubscribed line card are enhanced SFP
modules.
