SPA Summary
Table 2-1 shows the summary descriptions of the SPAs that are supported on the Cisco 12000 Series Router.
Checking Hardware and Software Compatibility
To check the minimum software requirements of Cisco IOS software with the hardware installed on your router, Cisco maintains the Software Advisor tool on Cisco.com. This tool does not verify whether SIPs or SPAs within a system are compatible, but it does provide the minimum Cisco IOS requirements for individual hardware modules or components.
Note
To access Software Advisor, click Login at Cisco.com, type "Software Advisor" in the SEARCH box, and click GO. Click the link for the Software Advisor tool.
Choose a product family or enter a specific product number to search for the minimum supported software release needed for your hardware.
Bandwidth Oversubscription
Oversubscribing the bandwidth limit recommendations of a router can result in decreased or degraded performance. For this reason, it is important to determine the amount of bandwidth used by the SPAs on the router and verify that the total bandwidth used by all SPAs does not exceed the recommended bandwidth limit of the router.
Note
Table 2-2 provides information about the bandwidth for each port (per-port bandwidth) on a SPA, as well as the cumulative bandwidth (total bandwidth) for all ports available on the SPA.

Table 2-3 describes the 2-Port and 4-Port Clear Channel T3/E3 SPA LEDs.
2-Port and 4-Port Clear Channel T3/E3 SPA Interface Specifications
The framer processes incoming and outgoing T3 (cbit, m13/m23, and unframe) and E3 (g751, g832, and unframe) frames. The framer operates at T3/E3 line rates (44.736 /34.368 Mbps) depending on the mode in which it is configured.
Packet data is transported with a user-configurable encapsulation (such as Point-to-Point Protocol [PPP] or High-Level Data Link Control [HDLC]), and is mapped to T3 and E3 frames. The encapsulations add transport overhead to the packet of data frames before transporting, and are stripped when a packet is transported to the far end.
The T3/E3 SPA interface is compliant with ANSI and Telco standards. The interface also provides support for Management Information Base (MIB) RFC 2496 and T1.231.
2-Port and 4-Port Clear Channel T3/E3 SPA Cables and Connectors
The interface connectors on the 2-Port and 4-Port Clear Channel T3/E3 SPA are 75-ohm coaxial Siemax types, with one connector and cable for transmit (TX) and one for receive (RX).
The following cables can be used with the 2-Port and 4-Port Clear Channel T3/E3 SPA. The cables have BNC connectors on one end and the Siemax connectors on the other. If similar SPAs are connected back-to-back, both ends of cable will be Siemax.

1-Port 10-Gigabit Ethernet SPA XFP Optical Transceiver Modules, Connectors, and Cables
The 1-Port 10-Gigabit Ethernet SPA supports the following types of optical transceiver modules:
•
•
Cisco Systems qualifies the optics that are approved for use with its SPAs. As of Cisco IOS Release 12.0(31)S the above listed XFPs are the only optical transceiver modules qualified for use.
Use a single-mode optical fiber that has a modal-field diameter of 8.7 ±0.5 microns (nominal diameter is approximately 10/125 microns) to connect your router to a network.
Figure 2-10 shows the cable type for use with the XFP optical transceiver module on the 1-Port 10-Gigabit Ethernet SPA.
Figure 2-10 LC-Type Cable for the XFP Optical Transceiver Modules
The 40-pin connector on the 1-Port 10-Gigabit Ethernet SPA is used for resilient packet ring (RPR) connections. This feature is not supported in Cisco IOS Release 12.0(31)S.
XFP Connections
The XFP-10GLR and XFP-10GER XFPs include an optical transmitter and receiver pair integrated with Clock and Data Recovery (CDR) integrated circuits. The XFPs provide high-speed serial links at the rate of 10.3125 Gbps (10 Gigabit Ethernet LAN-PHY mode) and 9.95328Gbps (10 Gigabit Ethernet WAN-PHY mode) on single mode fibers. The transmit side recovers and retimes the 10 Gbps serial data and passes it to a laser driver. The laser driver biases and modulates a 1310 nm or 1550 nm laser, enabling data transmission over SMF through an LC connector. The receive side recovers and retimes the 10 Gbps optical data stream from a photo detector trans impedance amplifier and passes it to an output driver.
See the label on the XFP for technology type and model. Figure 2-11 shows an XFP and Table 2-12 shows the XFP specifications.

Cleaning Optics
It is important to inspect and clean fiber-optic components before making a fiber-optic connection (for example, plugging a fiber-optic connector into a fiber-optic receptacle). Any contamination in the fiber connection can cause the optic component or the whole system to fail. Even microscopic dust particles, oil from human hands, film residues (condensed from vapors in the air), and powdery coatings (left after water or other solvents evaporate) can cause a variety of problems for optical connections.
Caution
See the following URL for instructions on how to clean fiber-optic components:
http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/127/cleanfiber2.html
Always follow the fiber-optic cleaning procedures carefully. The goal is to eliminate any dust or contamination and provide a clean environment for the fiber-optic connection. Inspection, cleaning, and reinspection are critical steps that must be performed before making any fiber-optic connection.
2-Port Gigabit Ethernet SPA Overview

2-Port Gigabit Ethernet SPA Cables and Connectors
The interface connectors on the 2-Port Gigabit Ethernet SPA are two individual fiber-optic receivers that support SFP modules. Each port can send and receive traffic using the optical fiber connections.
SFP Module Connections
The small form-factor pluggable (SFP) module is an input/output (I/O) device that plugs into the Gigabit Ethernet ports on the 2-Port Gigabit Ethernet SPA, linking the port with a fiber-optic network.
Note
SFP modules exist for technologies other than Gigabit Ethernet and for products other than the 2-Port Gigabit Ethernet SPA. However, the information in this document pertains only to SFP modules that plug into the 2-Port Gigabit Ethernet SPA ports.The SFP module has a receiver port (RX) and a transmitter port (TX) that compose one optical interface. Table 2-18 and Table 2-19 provide SFP module information and specifications.
SFP-GE-S Modules
The 1000BASE-SX (short wavelength) module operates on standard multimode fiber-optic link spans of up to 500 m on 50/125um MMF and 300 m on 62.5/125um MMF.
SFP-GE-L Modules
The 1000BASE-LX/LH (long wavelength/long haul) module interfaces fully comply with the
IEEE 802.3z 1000BASE-LX standard. However, their higher optical quality allows them to reach 6.2 miles (10 km) over single-mode fiber (SMF) versus the 3.1 miles (5 km) specified in the standard.SFP-GE-Z Modules
The 1000BASE-ZX (extended wavelength) module operates on ordinary single-mode fiber-optic link spans of up to 49.7 miles (80 km). Link spans of up to 62.1 miles (100 km) are possible using premium single-mode fiber or dispersion-shifted single-mode fiber (premium single-mode fiber has a lower attenuation per unit length than ordinary single-mode fiber; dispersion-shifted single-mode fiber has both lower attenuation and less dispersion).
The 1000BASE-ZX module must be coupled to single-mode fiber-optic cable, which is the type of cable typically used in long-haul telecommunications applications. The 1000BASE-ZX module will not operate correctly when coupled to multimode fiber, and it is not intended to be used in environments where multimode fiber is frequently used (for example, building backbones, or horizontal cabling).
The 1000BASE-ZX module is intended to be used as a Physical Medium Dependent (PMD) component for Gigabit Ethernet interfaces found on various switch and router products. It operates at a signaling rate of 1250 Mbaud, transmitting and receiving 8B/10B encoded data.
When shorter lengths of single-mode fiber are used, it may be necessary to insert an in-line optical attenuator in the link to avoid overloading the receiver.
•
•
SFP-GE-T Modules
The SFP-GE-T (1000BASE-T copper SFP module) provides full-duplex Gigabit Ethernet connectivity to high-end workstations and between wiring closets over an existing copper network infrastructure. The SFP-GE-T maximum cabling distance is 328 feet (100 m).
SFP Module Cabling and Connection Equipment
Table 2-20 provides cabling specifications for the SFP modules that can be installed on the 2-Port Gigabit Ethernet SPA. Note that all SFP ports have LC-type connectors.
The minimum cable distance for the SFP-GE-S is 6.5 feet (2 m), and the minimum link distance for the SFP-GE-Z is 6.2 miles (10 km) with an 8-dB attenuator installed at each end of the link. Without attenuators, the minimum link distance for the SFP-GE-Z is 24.9 miles (40 km).

5-Port Gigabit Ethernet SPA Overview
The following sections describe the 5-Port Gigabit Ethernet SPA:
•
•
5-Port Gigabit Ethernet SPA LEDs
The 5-Port Gigabit Ethernet SPA has two types of LEDs: an A/L LED for each individual port and a STATUS LED for the SPA, as shown in Figure 2-17.
Figure 2-17 5-Port Gigabit Ethernet SPA Faceplate
Table 2-21 describes the 5-Port Gigabit Ethernet SPA LEDs.
5-Port Gigabit Ethernet SPA Cables and Connectors
The 5-Port Gigabit Ethernet SPA has five electrical connectors that support SFP modules. Each port can send and receive traffic using cabling appropriate for the SFP module inserted.
SFP Module Connections
The small form-factor pluggable (SFP) module is an input/output (I/O) device that plugs into the Gigabit Ethernet ports on the 5-Port Gigabit Ethernet SPA, linking the port with a fiber-optic network.
Note
SFP modules exist for technologies other than Gigabit Ethernet and for products other than the 5-Port Gigabit Ethernet SPA. However, the information in this document pertains only to SFP modules that plug into the 5-Port Gigabit Ethernet SPA ports.The SFP module has a receiver port (RX) and a transmitter port (TX) that compose one optical interface. Table 2-22 and Table 2-23 provide SFP module information and specifications.
SFP-GE-S Modules
The 1000BASE-SX (short-wavelength) module operates on standard multimode fiber-optic link spans of up to 500 m on 50/125um multimode fiber (MMF) and 300 m on 62.5/125um MMF.
SFP-GE-L Modules
The 1000BASE-LX/LH (long-wavelength/long-haul) module interfaces fully comply with the
IEEE 802.3z 1000BASE-LX standard. However, their higher optical quality allows them to reach 6.2 miles (10 km) over single-mode fiber (SMF) versus the 3.1 miles (5 km) specified in the standard.SFP-GE-Z Modules
The 1000BASE-ZX (extended wavelength) module operates on ordinary single-mode fiber-optic link spans of up to 49.7 miles (80 km). Link spans of up to 62.1 miles (100 km) are possible using premium single-mode fiber or dispersion-shifted single-mode fiber. (Premium single-mode fiber has a lower attenuation per unit length than ordinary single-mode fiber; dispersion-shifted single-mode fiber has both lower attenuation and less dispersion.)
The 1000BASE-ZX module must be coupled to single-mode fiber-optic cable, which is the type of cable typically used in long-haul telecommunications applications. The 1000BASE-ZX module does not operate correctly when coupled to multimode fiber, and it is not intended to be used in environments in which multimode fiber is frequently used (for example, building backbones or horizontal cabling).
The 1000BASE-ZX module is intended to be used as a Physical Medium Dependent (PMD) component for Gigabit Ethernet interfaces found on various switch and router products. It operates at a signaling rate of 1250 Mbaud, transmitting and receiving 8B/10B encoded data.
When shorter lengths of single-mode fiber are used, it may be necessary to insert an inline optical attenuator in the link to avoid overloading the receiver. Use the following guidelines:
•

SFP Module Cabling and Connection Equipment
Table 2-24 provides cabling specifications for the SFP modules that can be installed on the 5-Port Gigabit Ethernet SPA. Note that all SFP ports have LC-type connectors.
The minimum cable distance for the SFP-GE-S is 6.5 feet (2 m), and the minimum link distance for the SFP-GE-Z is 6.2 miles (10 km) with an 8-dB attenuator installed at each end of the link. Without attenuators, the minimum link distance for the SFP-GE-Z is 24.9 miles (40 km).

Figure 2-21 SFP Optics Module
The SFP optical transceiver modules used with the 1-Port Channelized STM-1/OC-3 SPA provide the following optical fiber options:
•
Use a multimode optical fiber that has a core/cladding diameter of 62.5/125 microns.
•
Use a single-mode optical fiber that has a modal-field diameter of 8.7 ±0.5 microns. (Nominal diameter is approximately 10/125 microns.)
For single-mode and multimode optical fiber connections, you can use either a duplex LC-type cable (see Figure 2-22) or two simplex LC-type cables, one for transmit (TX) and one for receive (RX).
Use single-mode (for intermediate- or long-reach configurations) or multimode optical fiber cable to connect your router to a network or to connect two 1-Port Channelized STM-1/OC-3 SPA-equipped routers back to back.
Long-range SFP optical transceiver modules (for long-reach configurations) cannot be connected back-to-back without using an attenuator between the two of them.

•
•
The 2-Port, 4-Port, and 8-Port OC-3c/STM-1 and OC-12c/STM-4 POS SPA and the 4-Port and 8-Port OC-3c/STM-1 POS SPA are single-height SPAs that each install into one SIP subslot. The SPAs with small form-factor pluggable (SFP) optical transceiver modules provide Optical Carrier Level (OC-N) for SONET and Synchronous Transport Module (STM-N) for SDH network connectivity. For the OC-3 SPAs, the per-port bandwidth is 155.52 Mbps. For the OC-12 SPAs, any given channel can be configured as either OC-3 or OC-12, so the per-port bandwidth can be either 155.52 Mbps or 622.08 Mbps respectively, depending on the customer configuration.
Note
The 8-port OC-12c/STM-4 POS SPA is a full rate SPA; therefore, it can only be installed in subslots 1 or 2 of the SIP. The 4-Port and 8-Port OC-3c/STM-1 POS SPA and the 2-Port, 4-Port, and 8-Port OC-3c/STM-1 and OC-12c/STM-4 POS SPAs are all half rate SPAs.
