Into a physical port, you must insert a fiber optic module provided by Brocade. The XFP-compliant fiber optic modules provide an optical transceiver or physical medium dependent (PMD) interface for single mode fiber that can be used with the LAN physical layer (PHY). The following optic modules versions are available from Brocade: • Short wavelength (86 - 300 meters) - Brocade part number 10G-XFP-SR • Long wavelength (10 kilometers) - Brocade part number 10G-XFP-LR • Extra long wavelength (40 kilometers) - Brocade part number 10G-XFP-ER 16-port 10 Gigabit Ethernet oversubscribed module The 16 x 10GE oversubscribed module for the BigIron RX plugs into any port slot of the BigIron switch and is compatible with all previous generations of card on that switch. It provides interfaces to 16 X 10GE ports. Figure 7 shows the 16-port 10 Gigabit Ethernet module's front panel.

10 Gigabit Ethernet ports
A 10 Gigabit Ethernet module contain four physical ports, through which you can connect your
BigIron RX Series switch to other network devices at a speed of 10 Gigabits.
Into a physical port, you must insert a fiber optic module provided by Brocade. The XFP-compliant
fiber optic modules provide an optical transceiver or physical medium dependent (PMD) interface
for single mode fiber that can be used with the LAN physical layer (PHY).
The following optic modules versions are available from Brocade:
Short wavelength (86 – 300 meters) – Brocade part number 10G-XFP-SR
Long wavelength (10 kilometers) – Brocade part number 10G-XFP-LR
Extra long wavelength (40 kilometers) – Brocade part number 10G-XFP-ER
16-port 10 Gigabit Ethernet oversubscribed module
The 16 x 10GE oversubscribed module for the BigIron RX plugs into any port slot of the BigIron
switch and is compatible with all previous generations of card on that switch. It provides interfaces
to 16 X 10GE ports.
Figure 7
shows the 16-port 10 Gigabit Ethernet module’s front panel.
FIGURE 7
