Frequently Asked Questions
What is a 10GBASE-DWDM transceiver used for?
A 10GBASE-DWDM transceiver enables high-speed optical communication over long distances by using specific wavelengths on dense wavelength division multiplexing networks. It's essential for enterprise data centers and service provider networks requiring multiple 10Gb/s channels over single fiber pairs.
Is this ENET X2 module compatible with Cisco equipment?
Yes, this ENET DWDM X2 module is fully Cisco-compatible and functionally identical to Cisco original transceivers. It integrates directly into Cisco switches and routers supporting X2 form factor modules without requiring firmware updates or configuration changes.
What does 1543.73nm wavelength mean?
The 1543.73nm wavelength represents the specific light frequency used by this DWDM transceiver on the 100GHz ITU grid. This standardized wavelength allows multiple transceivers to operate simultaneously on the same fiber, each using different wavelengths for simultaneous bidirectional communication.
Can I use this transceiver for long-distance connections?
Yes, the 10GBASE-DWDM SC connector module supports long-distance optical links typical in carrier and enterprise backbone networks. The specific wavelength and DWDM technology enable extended reach compared to standard 10GBASE-LR modules.
