CFP2 modules are used in Extreme Networks BlackDiamond switches.There are two CFP2 modules available: SR10 and LR4. The CFP2 SR10 can be used for distances up to 150 meters, while the CFP2 LR4 can be used for distances up to 10 kilometers.

You can insert or remove CFP2 modules without powering down the system.

The information in this guide about hardware platform support for CFP2 modules is current as of the date this guide was published. Support for CFP2 modules may have been added to other switches or I/O modules besides those listed in this guide.

CFP2 SR10

The CFP2 SR10 is a ten channel pluggable, parallel, fiber optic transceiver for 100 Gigabit Ethernet applications. The transceiver supports high speed serial links over multi-mode fiber for link distances up to 100m with OM3 fiber or 150m with OM4 fiber.With an optional break-out cable, the CFP2 SR10 module can support 10 10-Gigabit data lanes. The CFP2 SR10 uses a 24-fiber MPO fiber optic connector. The CFP2 SR10 is compliant to 100GbE specifications 802.3ba (100GBase-SR10, CAUI and CPPI) up to 100m OM3 and 150m OM4 fiber. Mechanical dimensions, connecters, and footprint of the module conform to the CFP MSA CFP2 Hardware Specification Revision 1.0 July 31, 2013 standard.
