<strong>Black</strong> <strong>Box</strong> XFP Modules<br />

10 Gigabit modules for BLACK BOX ® Media Converters and Switches.<br />

You can use the topology you need with<br />

XFP slot modules. The modules are available<br />

for both short-range (multimode) and longrange<br />

(Single-mode).<br />

These XFP modules are operable in <strong>Black</strong><br />

<strong>Box</strong> media converters and switches as well as<br />

switches from Nortel and Extreme, but these<br />

XFP modules are not compatible for use in<br />

an HP ® , 3Com ® or Cisco switches.<br />

For 10 Gigabit it is more important which<br />

multimode fibre is used than with older<br />

standards.<br />

If you are looking for SFPs that are<br />

compatible with switches from<br />

other vendors like HP and Cisco<br />

then contact our FREE Tech Support<br />

SFP for all <strong>Black</strong> <strong>Box</strong> Switches and Media Converters<br />

Order them, plug them in, then sit back and enjoy.<br />

Small form-factor pluggables (SFPs)<br />

enable you to quickly and easily add or<br />

change fibre uplinks and downlinks on your<br />

switches. And now you can save money by<br />

buying your SFPs from <strong>Black</strong> <strong>Box</strong>!<br />

Designs with SFP slots mean more value<br />

and investment protection for you. You can<br />

change topologies whenever needed — or<br />

simply use the SFP modules wherever<br />

needed.<br />

These SFP modules fit into all <strong>Black</strong> <strong>Box</strong><br />

switches and media converters.<br />

Unfortunately, these SFP modules are not<br />

compatible with switches fom third-party<br />

vendors like Hewlett Packard or Cisco.<br />

<strong>Black</strong> <strong>Box</strong> Explains<br />

10 Gigabit.<br />

In the year 1830, "The Rocket" was the<br />

fastest train, travelling between Liverpool<br />

and Manchester at the speed of 47km/h.<br />

At that time, people thought that nobody<br />

would ever have the need to travel faster<br />

than 50 km/h. In the year 1983 ,the official<br />

IEEE standard for Ethernet running on<br />

BNC/Coax was released. The speed was<br />

10Mbps half-duplex. At that time nobody<br />

was arguing about bandwidth as they<br />

weren't transmitting music or video.<br />

But technology always moves on. What<br />

seemed impossible yesterday is normal<br />

today. When sending music, video and<br />

more across the network, you can never<br />

have enough bandwidth.<br />

The LBG6000 and LBG9000 Series<br />

switches provide you with 10Gb Ethernet<br />

technology. <strong>Black</strong> <strong>Box</strong> supports fibre optic<br />

and copper interfaces that are available<br />

and reliable. For copper, use the CX4<br />

interface for connecting servers or for<br />

interconnecting switches. Because the<br />

distance is very limited, you should use<br />

fibre optic cabling for your long-distance<br />

connections.<br />

You may find RJ-45 interfaces for 10Gb<br />

equipment, but these require special<br />

cabling and connectors. 10Gb on RJ-45<br />

uses a line encoding scheme. You may also<br />

find equipment with XENAPAK modules,<br />

but these are already phased out.<br />

Currently the XFP module type is the<br />

standard for connecting 10Gb to fibre. The<br />

maximum distance you can cover depends<br />

on the fibre type installed. Getting into<br />

10Gb technology begs the question, 'What<br />

am I going to do' Normally you go for<br />

new switches to have more backbone and<br />

aggregation bandwidth. Installing a 10Gb<br />

Network Interface Card into your file or<br />

application server may also be necessary to<br />

benefit from your investment.<br />

For a complete enterprise system, you<br />

may need (1) LBG9900AE as the core switch<br />

with the required number of XFPs and<br />

several LBG6550AE for the transmitters<br />

and receivers.<br />
