Dell PowerConnect J-Series J-EX4500 Ethernet Switch Hardware Guide Optical Interface Support in J-EX4500 Switches Uplink module ports on J-EX4500 switches support SFP and SFP+ transceivers. This topic describes the optical interfaces supported for those transceivers. It also lists the copper interface supported for the SFP transceivers. NOTE: For your J-EX4500 switch, use only the optical transceivers and optical connectors described in this manual. For more information, contact Dell. The Gigabit Ethernet SFP and SFP+ transceivers installed in J-EX4500 switches support digital optical monitoring (DOM): you can view the diagnostic details for these transceivers by issuing the operational mode CLI command show interfaces diagnostics optics. The following tables describe the optical interface support over single-mode fiber-optic (SMF) and multimode fiber-optic (MMF) cables for SFP and SFP+ transceivers and over the copper interface for SFP transceivers: • Table 18 on page 41-Optical interface support and copper interface support for Gigabit Ethernet SFP transceivers. • Table 19 on page 43-Optical interface support for Gigabit Ethernet SFP+ transceivers. 40

Optical Interface Support in J-EX4500 Switches

Uplink module ports on J-EX4500 switches support SFP and SFP+ transceivers. This

topic describes the optical interfaces supported for those transceivers. It also lists the

copper interface supported for the SFP transceivers.

NOTE:

For your J-EX4500 switch, use only the optical transceivers and optical

connectors described in this manual. For more information, contact Dell.

The Gigabit Ethernet SFP and SFP+ transceivers installed in J-EX4500 switches support

digital optical monitoring (DOM): you can view the diagnostic details for these transceivers

by issuing the operational mode CLI command

show interfaces diagnostics optics

The following tables describe the optical interface support over single-mode fiber-optic

(SMF) and multimode fiber-optic (MMF) cables for SFP and SFP+ transceivers and over

the copper interface for SFP transceivers:

•

Table 18 on page 41—Optical interface support and copper interface support for Gigabit

Ethernet SFP transceivers.

•

Table 19 on page 43—Optical interface support for Gigabit Ethernet SFP+ transceivers.
