Cozlink Supply The Cisco X2 Transceivers Function And Compatibility

How many optical transceivers brands heard before? One, two, or all of the them.Major brands like Cisco, HP, Juniper, Nortel, Force10, D-link, 3Com and so on. Cozlink produce and stock for a full range of optical transceivers. All our fiber transceivers are 100% compatible with major brands and backed by a lifetime warranty. Buy with confidence. We can customize optical transceivers to fit your specific requirements.


Now I mainly around a brand of a transceiver, that is cisco x2 transceivers.I’m not sure if you listen to, but, no matter heard not, I will introduce you to it. Cisco X2 10Gb fiber transceiver module support a wide range of 10Gbps standards, include the 10Gbps Ethernet, OC192/STM-6 SONET/SDH, OC192 VSR and 10G Fibre Channel. Cisco X2 10Gb fiber optic transceiver module is a hot swappable products designed for 10Gbps applications. The X2 MSA were made by eight companies including JDSU, NEC, OPNEXT and TYCO, etc. Cisco X2 10Gb is used in 10Gbps LANs, enterprise networks and telecommunications.

x2 transceiver

X2 transceiver can be a hot swappable products designed for 10Gbps fiber optic transceiver applications. Its development was based on former XENPAK standards, X2 transceiver inner function is nearly similar with XENPAK, and X2 also can use one transceiver to fulfill all 10G Ethernet optical port function. To expect half sized XENPAK, this enable it suit for density installations.


10Gbps Ethernet standards were defined by IEEE in 2002, it not only enlarges the data transmission rate, but it has greater working distance. IEEE 802.3ae 10G Ethernet standard defined the working distance from 300 meters to 40km. We supply the X2 10G fiber optic transceivers that are fully compatible with equipment from other suppliers.


Cozlink supplies a a variety of Cisco X2 10Gb fiber optic transceivers.And they have some of the rules, I will sort out their compatibility.For example,compatible 10GBase-SR we supply Cisco X2-10GB-SR,Cisco DS-X2-E10G-SR,Cisco DS-X2-FC10G-SR;compatible 10GBase-LR we supply Cisco X2-10GB-LR,Cisco DS-X2-FC10G-LR;compatible 10GBase-ER we supply Cisco X2-10GB-ER,Cisco DS-X2-FC10G-ER ;and we also have some other compatible such as 10GBase-ZR,10GBase-LRM,10GB BIDI,CWDM X2 and DWDM X2. If you have any questions or requests on these X2 transceivers above, please do let us know! We sincerely look forward to hearing from you!


Note: For optical cisco x2 modules, only connections with patch cords with PC or UPC connectors are supported. Patch cords with APC connectors are not supported. All cables and cable assemblies used have to be compliant while using standards laid out in the standards section.

Cisco 10GBASE X2 Modules

Overview
The Cisco 10GBASE X2 modules offer customers a wide variety of 10 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity options for data center, enterprise wiring closet, and service provider transport applications.

Main features of Cisco 10GBASE X2 modules include:

  • Support 10GBASE Ethernet
  • Hot-swappable input/output device plugs into an Ethernet X2 port of a Cisco switch or router to link the port with the network
  • Provides flexibility of interface choice
  • Supports “pay-as-you-populate” model
  • Supports the Cisco quality identification (ID) feature that enables a Cisco switch or router to identify whether the module is certified and tested by Cisco
  • Has optical interoperability with respective 10GBASE Xenpak, 10GBASE XFP and 10GBASE SFP+ modules on the same link
Cisco X2-10GB-CX4
The Cisco 10GBASE-CX4 Module supports link lengths of up to 15m on CX4 cable.
Cisco X2-10GB-T
The Cisco 10GBASE-T Module supports link lengths of up to 100m on CAT6A or CAT7 copper cable.
Cisco X2-10GB-LRM
The Cisco 10GBASE-LRM Module 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. No mode conditioning patch cord is required for applications over OM3. For additional information on mode conditioning patch cord requirements please see: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/collateral/modules/ps5455/product_bulletin_c25-530836.html. The Cisco 10GBASE-LRM Module also supports link lengths of 300m on standard single-mode fiber (SMF, G.652).
Cisco X2-10GB-LX4
The Cisco 10GBASE-LX4 Module supports link lengths of 300m on standard FDDI grade MMF. To ensure that specifications are met, the transmitter output should be coupled through a mode conditioning patch cord. For additional information on mode conditioning patch cord requirements please see: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/collateral/modules/ps5455/product_bulletin_c25-530836.html.
Cisco X2-10GB-SR
The Cisco 10GBASE-SR Module supports a link length of 26m on standard FDDI grade MMF. Using 2000 MHz*km MMF (OM3), up to 300m link lengths are possible. Using 4700 MHz*km MMF (OM4), up to 400m link lengths are possible.
Cisco X2-10GB-LR
The Cisco 10GBASE-LR Module supports a link length of 10 kilometers on standard single-mode fiber (SMF, G.652).
Cisco X2-10GB-ER
The Cisco 10GBASE-ER Module supports a link length of up to 40 kilometers on standard single-mode fiber (SMF, G.652).
Cisco X2-10GB-ZR
Supports link lengths of up to about 80 km on SMF. This interface is not part of the 10 Gigabit Ethernet standard but is built according to Cisco optical specifications.
