How to determine what types of optical transceivers for Cisco switches?
1. Finding the corresponding optical module compatibility matrix via Cisco official website.
2. On the running switches, enter the privileged mode and input # "show idprom interface gi1 / 0/48" command, you can query the optical module model and serial number, If not, try to input other two commands: xuxic or show idprom int g2/6
3. Checking the type and port based on the specification, it can be used as long as it is gigabit SFP optical module interface. But the specific models to be decided according to the actual demand, such as type, the actual use of distance, single-mode or multimode, single fiber or dual fiber etc. Welcome to consult Cozlink engineer.
Summary
The Cisco N3K-C3172PQ-XL switch is well suited for data centers that require cost-effective, power-efficient line-rate Layer 3 top-of-rack (ToR) switches. It also supports forward and reverse airflow (port-side exhaust and port-side intake) schemes with AC and DC power inputs. These switches support a huge number of Gigabit Ethernet SFP optical transceivers. All these high quality fiber optic transceivers can be found on Cozlink for great prices. Cozlink also make sure to provide its customers same day shipping. You can also choose fiber optic pigtails and high speed cables from a great range of products on Cozlink.
