This appendix provides descriptions and specifications for the pluggable transceiver modules that are supported on the Catalyst 6500 series Ethernet switching modules.
The appendix is divided into these topics:
100-MB small form-factor pluggable (SFP) transceivers are currently the only 100-MB transceivers that are supported on a Catalyst 6500 series Ethernet switching module. They are supported only on the WS-X6148-FE-SFP Ethernet module.
The 100-MB SFP transceiver module is shown in Figure B-1. Table B-1 lists the types of 100-MB SFP transceivers and their cabling distances.
Note The 100-MB and the 1-GB SFP transceivers share the same form factor, but are not interchangeable.

1 The 1000BASE-ZX GBIC transceiver provides a minimum optical power budget of 23 dB. To determine the supported link distance, you need to measure your cable plant with an optical loss test set to verify that the optical loss of the cable plant (including connectors and splices) is less than or equal to this value. The optical measurement must be performed with a 1550 nanometer light source. |

Additional factors, such as the number of splices and the optical quality of the fiber, can affect cabling distances. 2 Refer to the product bulletin for the usage of mode conditioning patch cords in 1000BASE and 10GBASE Ethernet laser-based transmissions at this URL: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/collateral/modules/ps5455/product_bulletin_c25-530836.html 3 ITU-T G.652 SMF as specified by the IEEE 802.3z standard. 4 1000BASE-ZX SFP modules can reach up to 62 miles (100 km) by using dispersion-shifted SMF or low-attenuation SMF; the actual distance depends on the fiber quality, the number of splices, and the connectors. |
Table B-9 lists the fiber loss budgets for the 1-GB SFP transceivers.
Table B-10 lists the physical and environmental specifications for the 1-GB SFP transceivers.
Note You can use any combination of SFP modules that your Cisco device supports. The only restrictions are that each SFP port must match the wavelength specifications on the other end of the cable and that the cable must not exceed the stipulated cable length for reliable communications.
The 10-GB transceiver types include the XENPAK transceiver and the X2 transceiver. The XENPAK transceivers and X2 transceivers differ in form-factor; they are not interchangeable. Table B-11 lists both 10-GB transceiver types and the modules that support them

Refer to your software release notes to determine if a specific 10-GB transceiver is supported on your module. 2 The VS-S720-10G-3C and the VS-S720-10G-3CXL supervisor engines have two 10-Gigabit transceiver uplink ports on the front panel. Normally, the ports support X2 transceivers. By using a OneX converter, the 10-Gigabit port can also support SFP+ transceivers 3 The WS-X6904-40G Ethernet module has four ports that support 40-Gigabit CFP transceivers. By installing a FourX converter in a port, that port can accept up to four SFP+ transceivers. |
XENPAK transceivers are supported in the WS-X6704-10GE 10-Gigabit Ethernet module. Figure B-6 shows the form-factor of the XENPAK transceiver. Table B-12 lists the optical and the cabling distance specifications for the XENPAK transceivers.
Note The dual SC connector on the X2 transceivers support network interface cables with either Physical Contact (PC) or Ultra-Physical Contact (UPC) polished face types. The connectors do not support network interface cables with an Angle Polished Connector (APC)-polished face type.

1 Cable distances are based on fiber loss. Additional factors, such as the number of splices and the optical quality of the fiber, can affect cabling distances. The minimum cabling distance for optical XENPAK types (LX4, SR, LR, and ER) is 6.6 ft (2 m) according to the IEEE 802.3ae standard. The minimum cabling distance for the XENPAK-10GB-LRM is 1.6 ft (0.5 m) according to IEEE 802.3aq standard. 2 The Cisco XENPAK-10GB-CX4 transceiver supports link lengths of up to 49.2 feet (15 m) on CX4 cable. Cisco offers four CX4 cables: CAB-INF-28G-1= (1 meter cable), CAB-INF-28G-5= (5 meter cable), CAB-INF-28G-10= (10 meter cable), and CAB-INF-26G-15= (15 meter cable). 3 The Cisco XENPAK-10GB-LX4 transceiver supports link lengths of 300 meters on standard Fiber Distributed Data Interface (FDDI) grade multimode fiber (MMF). To ensure that specifications are met, the transmitter output should be coupled through a mode conditioning patch cord. Cisco offers two mode conditioning patch cords: CAB-GELX-625= (mode conditioning patch cable, 62.5 microns, dual SC connectors) and CAB-MCP50-SC= (mode conditioning patch cable, 50 microns, dual SC connectors). 4 ITU-T G.652 SMF as specified by the IEEE 802.3z standard. Even though dispersion-shifted optical fiber reduces signal dispersion, which allows the signal to travel farther, signal attenuation still limits its distance. 5 The Cisco XENPAK-10GB-LRM transceiver supports link lengths of 220m on standard Fiber Distributed Data Interface (FDDI) grade multimode fiber (MMF). To ensure that specifications are met over FDDI-grade, OM1 and OM2 fibers, the transmitter should be coupled through a mode conditioning patch cord. Cisco offers two mode conditioning patch cords: CAB-GELX-625= (mode conditioning patch cable 62.5 microns, dual SC connectors) and CAB-MCP50-SC= (mode conditioning patch cable 50 microns, dual SC connectors). No mode conditioning patch cord is required for applications using OM3. 6 The XENPAK-10GB-LW (WAN PHY) supports a link length of 6.2 miles (10 km) on standard SMF (G.652). 7 Requires a 5 db 1550 nm fixed loss attenuator for cable distances less than 12.43 miles (20 km). The attenuator is available from Cisco Systems |

X2 transceivers are supported on the WS-X6708-10GE, WS-X6716-10GE, and the WS-X6848-10GE 10-Gigabit Ethernet modules. Not all X2 transceiver types are supported unconditionally by these two modules; the following caveats apply:
•X2-10GB-CX4—10GBASE for CX4 (copper) cable. No restrictions for use.
•X2-10GB-ER—10GBASE-ER serial 1550-nm extended-reach, single-mode fiber (SMF), dispersion-shifted fiber (DSF). X2-10GB-ER transceivers labeled with a serial number that ends in -02 do not provide EMI compliance with the WS-X6716-10GE module. (See Figure B-7 for the serial number location.)
•X2-10GB-LR—10GBASE-LR serial 1310-nm long-reach, single-mode fiber (SMF), dispersion-shifted fiber (DSF). X2-10GB-LR transceivers labeled with a serial number that ends in -02 do not provide EMI compliance with the WS-X6716-10GE module. (See Figure B-7 for the serial number location.)
•X2-10GB-LRM—10GBASE-LRM for FDDI-grade multimode fiber (MMF). The X2-10GB-LRM is not supported by the show idprom command.
•X2-10GB-LX4—10GBASE-LX4 serial 1310-nm multimode fiber (MMF). X2-10GB-LX4 transceivers that are labeled with a serial number that ends with -01, -02, or -03 do not provide EMI compliance when they are installed in the WS-X6716-10GE. (See Figure B-7 for the serial number location.)
•X2-10GB-SR—10GBASE-SR serial 850-nm short-reach multimode fiber (MMF). No restrictions for use.

1 Cable distances are based on fiber loss. Additional factors, such as the number of splices and the optical quality of the fiber, can affect cabling distances. The minimum cabling distance for optical X2 transceiver types (LX4, SR, LR, and ER) is 6.6 ft (2 m) according to the IEEE 802.3ae standard. The minimum cabling distance for the X2-10GB-LRM is 1.6 ft (0.5 m) according to IEEE 802.3aq standard. 2 The Cisco X2-10GB-CX4 transceiver supports link lengths of up to 49.2 feet (15 m) on CX4 cable. Cisco offers four CX4 cables: CAB-INF-28G-1= (1 meter cable), CAB-INF-28G-5= (5 meter cable), CAB-INF-28G-10= (10 meter cable), and CAB-INF-26G-15= (15 meter cable). 3 The Cisco X2-10GB-LX4 transceiver supports link lengths of 300 meters on standard Fiber Distributed Data Interface (FDDI) grade multimode fiber (MMF). To ensure that specifications are met, the transmitter output should be coupled through a mode conditioning patch cord. Cisco offers two mode conditioning patch cords: CAB-GELX-625= (mode conditioning patch cable, 62.5 microns, dual SC connectors) and CAB-MCP50-SC= (mode conditioning patch cable, 50 microns, dual SC connectors). 4 The Cisco X2-10GB-LRM transceiver supports link lengths of 220 meters on standard Fiber Distributed Data Interface (FDDI) grade multimode fiber (MMF). To ensure that specifications are met over FDDI-grade, OM1 and OM2 fibers, the transmitter should be coupled through a mode conditioning patch cord. Cisco offers two mode conditioning patch cords: CAB-GELX-625= (mode conditioning patch cable 62.5 microns, dual SC connectors) and CAB-MCP50-SC= (mode conditioning patch cable 50 microns, dual SC connectors). No mode conditioning patch cord is required for applications using OM3. 5 Requires a 5 db 1550 nm fixed loss attenuator for cable distances less than 12.43 miles (20 km).

10-Gigabit SFP+ transceivers are supported by the Virtual Switching Supervisor Engine 720 (VS-S720-10G-3C and VS-S720-10G-3CXL) and the WS-X6904-40G Ethernet module (with the use of FourX converter modules). The supervisor engine has two 10-Gigabit ports on the the front panel. The two ports normally accepts X2 10-Gigabit transceivers. By installing a OneX converter module (CVR-X2-SFP10G) in the port, the port can accept a 10-Gigabit SFP+ transceiver.
