Modular Optics Compatibility
Modular Optics Compatibility
Some SPAs implement small form-factor pluggable (SFP) optical transceivers to provide network
connectivity. An SFPmodule is a fiber optic receptacle device that mounts flush with the front panel to
provide network connectivity.
Cisco Systems qualifies the SFP modules that can be used with SPAs.
Note The SPAs will only accept the SFP modules listed as supported in this document. An SFP check is run
every time an SFP is inserted into a SPA and only SFP modules that pass this check will be usable.
Table 1-2 shows the types of optics modules that have been qualified for use with a SPA:
