Bias-Free Language

The documentation set for this product strives to use bias-free language. For the purposes of this documentation set, bias-free is defined as language that does not imply discrimination based on age, disability, gender, racial identity, ethnic identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and intersectionality. Exceptions may be present in the documentation due to language that is hardcoded in the user interfaces of the product software, language used based on RFP documentation, or language that is used by a referenced third-party product.

Cisco XFP Module

Main features of the Cisco XFP Module include:

      Supports 10GBASE Ethernet and OC-192/STM-64 data rates

      Hot-swappable input/output device plugs into a XFP port of a Cisco Systems® router to link the port with the network

      Provides flexibility of interface choice

      Supports “pay-as-you-populate” model

      Supports the digital optical monitoring capability

      Supports the Cisco quality identification (ID) feature that helps enable a Cisco switch or router to identify whether the module is a Cisco certified and tested XFP

      Supports optical interoperability with respective Cisco 10GBASE XENPAK and X2, and SFP+ modules on the same link
