Cisco 10-Gbps Ethernet DWDM X2 Transceiver

The Cisco 10-Gbps Ethernet DWDM X2 Transceiver pluggable module (DWDM-X2-xx.xx=) provides high-performance Fibre Channel connectivity for the Cisco MDS 9000 family 10-Gbps Fibre Channel switching module to an existing Ethernet DWDM infrastructure. The data format transmitted by the Ethernet DWDM X2 transceiver on the fiber is identical to that transmitted by the Fibre Channel X2 transceiver, except that the Fibre Channel packets are clocked at the 10-Gigabit Ethernet rate.

The main features of the Cisco 10-Gbps Ethernet DWDM X2 Transceiver include:
