XFP Interfaces
XFP modules are used in the Summit X450a and X450e series switches, as well as the BlackDiamond
10G4Xa I/O module for the BlackDiamond 8800 series switches. XFP modules are 10-gigabit modules
that convert serial electrical signals to external serial optical or electrical signals. XFP modules can be
inserted into or removed from an Extreme Networks switch or I/O module without powering off the
system. All Extreme Networks XFP modules comply with IEEE 802.3ae standards and with the latest
XFP multi-source agreement (MSA).
Extreme Networks switches and modules support the following types of XFP interfaces:
● LR XFP module
● SR XFP module
LR XFP Module
The LR XFP module supports single-mode fiber (SMF) and has LC duplex connectors.
The LR XFP module requires the software versions listed in Table 60.
Table 61 lists the specifications for the LR XFP module.
