1Identifier
2The identifier value specifies the physical device described by the serial information.
3This value shall be included in the serial data. The defined identifier values are shown in
4table 3.2. Finisar SFP modules have this byte set to 03h. Finisar GBIC modules have
5this byte set to 01h.

15Connector
16The connector value indicates the external connector provided on the interface. This
17value shall be included in the serial data. The defined connector values are shown in
18 table 3.3. Note that 01h – 05h are not SFP compatible, and are included for
19compatibility with GBIC standards. Finisar optical SFP modules currently have this byte
20set to 07h (optical LC connector). GBIC modules have the byte set to 01h (SC).
