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-C3172TQ-10GT= switch is well suited for customers who want to reuse existing copper cabling while migrating from 1-Gbps to 10-Gbps servers. These switches are compatible with various Gigabit Ethernet SFP optical transceivers. All these fiber optic transceivers are available on Cozlink at really competitive prices. You can expect same day shipping on Cozlink. Not just optical transceivers, you can also find fiber optic pigtails and high speed cables for your choice on Cozlink.
