1.1.4 SFP modules
SFP modules are optical transceivers (Fast ETHERNET and Gigabit
ETHERNET SFP modules - see page 54 “Accessories”). SFP stands for
Small Form-factor Pluggable and is also often referred to as mini-GBIC
(GigaBit Interface Converter).
The SFP modules are plugged into the SFP slots of the Fast ETHERNET
media module MM20-Z6Z6Z6Z6 or the Gigabit ETHERNET media modules
MM4-4TX/SFP and MM4-2TX/SFP in order to have an F/O port.
Module MM20-Z6Z6Z6Z6 has 4 SFP slots for connecting SFP modules
(100 Mbit/s).
Modules MM4-4TX/SFP and MM4-2TX/SFP have, respectively, 4 and 2 TP
interfaces and 4 and 2 slots for connecting SFP modules (1000 Mbit/s).
By inserting the SFP module you deactivate the corresponding TP interface.
