1-Gigabit SFP Transceivers
DWDM SFP transceivers look like the typical 1000BASE-X transceivers as shown in Figure B-9 on page
B-17.
For the specifications that differentiate the 1000BASE-DWDM SFP transceivers, see the Cisco Gigabit
Ethernet Transceiver Modules Compatibility Matrix. For specifications and installation information that
apply to all CWDM SFP transceivers, see the Cisco SFP and SFP+ Transceiver Module Installation
Notes.
1000BASE-T and 1000BASE-X SFP Transceivers
The 1000BASE-T and 1000BASE-X SFPs are hot-swappable transceivers that you plug into
SFP-compatible I/O modules. The 1000BASE-T transceiver, shown in Figure B-8, provides an RJ-45
connection for copper cables, and the 1000BASE-X transceiver, shown in Figure B-9, provides an
optical connection for fiber-optic cables.
