The mini-GBIC slots support the 100Base and 1000Base fiber cabling listed in “Network
interfaces” on page 30.
Support for 100Base-FX on the 100/1000 interface module
The 24-port 100/1000 fiber interface module supports the following types of SFPs for 100Base-FX:
• Multimode SFP – maximum distance is 2 kilometers
• Bidirectional single mode SFP – maximum distance is 10 kilometers
• Long Reach (LR) – maximum distance is 40 kilometers
• Intermediate Reach (IR) – maximum distance is 15 kilometers
To enable support for 100BaseFX, you must enter the CLI command 100-fx at the Interface level of
the CLI. For CLI command details, refer to the section “Enabling and Disabling Support for
100BaseFX” in the FastIron Configuration Guide.
2-Port 10-Gigabit Ethernet interface modules
The 2-port 10-Gigabit Ethernet modules contain two physical ports, through which you can connect
the Brocade device to other network devices at a speed of 10 Gigabits per second.
The modules have two optical interfaces with LC connectors for 10-Gigabit Small Form Factor
Pluggable (XFP) MSA-compliant transceivers. The transceivers support 10GBase-SR, 10GBase-LR,
and 10GBase-ER fiber optic cabling for LAN PHY or WAN PHY (LAN or WAN module only).
