8000 Series Modules
The sensing interfaces for the 8000 Series appliances can be delivered with
copper or fiber interfaces.
WARNING! Modules are not hot-swappable. See Inserting and Removing
8000 Series Modules on page 255 for more information.
The following modules contain configurable bypass sensing interfaces:
• a quad-port 1000BASE-T copper interface with configurable bypass
capability. See Quad-Port 1000BASE-T Copper Configurable Bypass
NetMod on page 186.
• a quad-port 1000BASE-SX fiber interface with configurable bypass
capability. See Quad-Port 1000BASE-SX Fiber Configurable Bypass NetMod
on page 187 for more information.
• a dual-port 10GBASE (MMSR or SMLR) fiber interface with configurable
bypass capability. See Dual-Port 10GBASE (MMSR or SMLR) Fiber
Configurable Bypass NetMod on page 188 for more information.
• a dual-port 40GBASE-SR4 fiber interface with configurable bypass capability
(2U devices only). See Dual-Port 40GBASE-SR4 Fiber Configurable Bypass
NetMod on page 191 for more information.
The following modules contain non-bypass sensing interfaces:
• a quad-port 1000BASE-T copper interface without bypass capability. See
Quad-Port 1000BASE-T Copper Non-Bypass NetMod on page 193 for more
information.
• a quad-port 1000BASE-SX fiber interface without bypass capability. See
Quad-Port 1000BASE-SX Fiber Non-Bypass NetMod on page 194 for more
information.
• a quad-port 10GBASE (MMSR or SMLR) fiber interface without bypass
capability. See Quad-Port 10GBASE (MMSR or SMLR) Fiber Non-Bypass
NetMod on page 195 for more information.
In addition, you can use a stacking module to connect two 3D8140 or up to four
3D8250 devices to combine their processing power and increase throughput. See
Stacking Module on page 197 for more information.
