8683XZR module

The 868XZR module supports both LAN and WAN operation (10.3 Gb/s LAN PHY and 9.9 Gb/s WAN PHY). The 8683XZR module ("8683XZR module" (page 61)) provides three bays for installing 10 Gigabit Ethernet small form factor pluggable (XFP) transceivers. The port operates in full-duplex mode.

The 8683XZR module includes three forwarding engine lanes. Each lane supports 10 Gb/s bidirectional traffic. All three ports can run concurrently at 10 Gb/s.

ATTENTION

Nortel recommends that you install only one 10GBaseZR/ZW on the 8683XLR and 8683XZR due to cooling limitations. Nortel further recommends that you install the XFP only in port 1. You can install a 10GBaseSR, -LR/LW, or -ER/EW in one or both of the remaining ports.
