This data sheet provides information about transceiver modules supported on Cisco® ASR 9000 Series line cards.
Cisco ASR 9000 Series line cards support the following transceiver modules:
• C Form-Factor Pluggable (CFP) modules for use on 100-Gigabit Ethernet interfaces
• Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) modules for use on Gigabit Ethernet, Optical Carrier, and Synchronous Transport Module (STM) interfaces
• 10-Gigabit Small Form-Factor Pluggable (XFP) modules for use on 10-Gigabit Ethernet interfaces
• SFP Plus (SFP+) modules for use on some 10-Gigabit Ethernet interfaces
Table 1 shows the line card support for Cisco ASR 9000 Series transceiver modules.
