Cisco MDS 9000 Family Pluggable Transceivers

Product Overview

The Cisco® Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP), Enhanced SFP (SFP+), and X2 devices are hot-swappable
transceivers. The transceivers plug into Cisco MDS 9000 Family director switching modules and fabric switch
ports. They allow you to choose different cabling types and distances on a port-by-port basis.

You can use them with the MDS 9000 Family products as shown in Table 1.

Cisco 2-Gbps Fibre Channel SFP Modules

Cisco 2-Gbps Fibre Channel SFP modules (Figure 1) provide cost-effective Fibre Channel connectivity for MDS
9000 Family Fibre Channel switching modules. Two types are available: the Cisco Fibre Channel Shortwave SFP
(part number DS-SFP-FC-2G-SW) and the Cisco Fibre Channel Longwave SFP (part number DS-SFP-FC-2G­LW). Each offers 1/2-Gbps autosensing Fibre Channel connectivity.

The Cisco Ethernet X2 Transceiver short-reach module (up to 300m; part number DS-X2-E10G-SR) enables high­performance Fibre Channel connectivity for the MDS 9000 Family 10-Gbps Fibre Channel switching module to an
existing Ethernet Dense Wavelength-Division Multiplexing (DWDM) transponder (Figure 13). The data format
transmitted is identical to that transmitted by the Fibre Channel transceiver (DS-X2-FC10G-SR), except the Fibre
Channel packets are clocked at the 10 Gigabit Ethernet rate to carry Fibre Channel packets over a 10-Gbps
Ethernet DWDM infrastructure. The MDS 9000 Family 10-Gbps Fibre Channel switching module automatically
detects DS-X2-E10G-SR; no software configuration is required.

Cisco Coarse Wavelength-Division Multiplexing Extended Distance SFP Solution

The MDS 9000 Family offers cost-effective multiprotocol extended distance connectivity to optimize to existing
optical infrastructure through the Cisco CWDM SFP solution (Figure 14). The solution has two main components: a
set of eight wavelength-specific SFP modules and a set of CWDM optical add-drop modules (OADMs). A Cisco
CWDM chassis enables rack-mounting of up to two CWDM OADMs. The CWDM OADMs are passive and require
no power or configuration.

Figure 14. Cisco CWDM Extended Distance SFP Solution

The CWDM SFP solution enables the transport of up to eight channels over one pair of single-mode fiber strands,
enabling enterprises to increase the bandwidth of an existing optical infrastructure without adding new fiber
strands. The solution can be used in parallel with other Cisco SFP devices on the same platform.

Figure 15 shows a common point-to-point deployment scenario for the MDS 9000 Family using the CWDM SFP
solution. Two endpoints are directly connected through a fiber link. The CWDM SFP solution enables customers to
add or drop up to eight channels onto a pair of single-mode fiber strands. As a result, the need for additional fiber is
reduced. Redundant point-to-point links can be implemented by adding or dropping redundant channels onto a
second pair of single-mode fiber strands.

Cisco CWDM OADMs

Technical Specifications for Cisco CWDM OADMs

The Cisco CWDM OADMs are passive devices that provide the capability to multiplex and demultiplex, or add and
drop wavelengths from multiple fibers onto one fiber. The OADM connectors are interfaced with color-matching
Cisco CWDM SFP modules on the equipment side. All modules are the same size. The Cisco CWDM chassis
enables rack mounting for up to two CWDM OADMs in a single rack unit.

The MDS 9000 Family offers two CWDM OADMs and a multiplexer and demultiplexer:

●

Cisco Dual Fiber 4-Channel OADMs (part numbers DS-CWDMOADM4A= and DS-CWDMOADM4B=): This
device allows you to add and drop four channels (with different wavelengths) onto one direction of an optical
ring. The other wavelengths are passed through the OADM. Dual fiber is used for both network and SFP
connections. The four wavelengths are set to 1470, 1490, 1510, and 1530 nm for DS-CWDMOADM4A=,
and to 1550, 1570, 1590, and 1610 nm for DS-CWDMOADM4B=.

●

Cisco Dual Fiber 8-Channel Multiplexer/Demultiplexer (DS-CWDM-MUX8A=): This device allows you to
multiplex and demultiplex eight separate channels onto one pair of fiber. Dual fiber is used for both network
and SFP connections. The eight wavelengths are set to 1470, 1490, 1510, 1530, 1550, 1570, 1590, and
1610 nm.

Tables 58 and 59 provide comparisons of the OADM types.

Environmental Conditions and Power Requirements

The operating temperature range is 23 to 131°F (–5 to 55°C), and the storage temperature range is –40 to 185°F
(–40 to 85°C).

The Cisco CWDM OADMs and the CWDM chassis are passive components that do not require power.

Dimensions and Weight

All the Cisco CWDM OADMs have the same dimensions: W x D x H: 21.2 x 3.0 x 26.5 cm. Two of these modules
fit into one CWDM chassis. The CWDM chassis is 1 rack unit (1RU) in height and fits in a standard 19-inch rack.

4-Gbps DWDM SFP Transceiver

The Cisco 4-Gbps DWDM SFP modules enable enterprises and service providers to provide scalable, easy-to­deploy DWDM Fibre Channel services in their networks. Direct integration of 4-Gbps DWDM optics in the MDS
9000 Family platform dramatically reduces capital costs and operating expenses for a Fibre Channel-over-DWDM
network, avoiding the need for DWDM transponders and muxponders.

The main features of the Cisco 4-Gbps DWDM SFP include:

●

Support for International Telecommunication Union (ITU) 100-GHz wavelength grid.

●

Match for wavelength plan of Cisco ONS 100-GHz product family.

●

Fixed-wavelength SFP, with 40 SFP models.

Ordering Information

Using customer use data, Cisco has identified and selected particular high-use wavelengths and will maintain
shorter lead times on these items. The short-lead-time 4-Gbps DWDM SFP modules are from 1546.1 to 1560.6
