Install and Connect to Devices in the 10-Gigabit Ethernet Slots

The switch 10-Gigabit Ethernet module slots are used for connections to other switches and routers.

The module slots operate in full-duplex mode and use the hot-swappable Cisco X2 transceiver modules

and the Cisco TwinGig Converter Module. The X2 transceiver modules have SC connectors to connect

to multimode fiber (MMF) and single-mode fiber (SMF) cables. The Cisco converter modules have two

SFP-module slots that convert the 10-Gigabit interface into a dual SFP interface.

For switches with horizontal 10-Gigabit Ethernet module slots, position the module face up to install

in the upper module slot (slot 1). Position the module face down to install in the lower module slot

(slot 2).

For switches with vertical 10-Gigabit Ethernet module slots, position the module top facing right to

install in a vertical module slot.

t 35 60 -E

When you install or remove the Cisco TwinGig converter module, the mode on the switch changes

from 10-Gigabit Ethernet to Gigabit Ethernet or the reverse. During this mode change, data traffic on

the other switch uplink ports (X2 transceiver or SFP module ports) might temporarily stop. When you

install or remove an X2 transceiver or SFP modules, traffic delay does not occur.

Use only Cisco X2 transceiver modules, Cisco converter modules, and Cisco SFP modules with the

switch. Each Cisco module has an internal serial EEPROM that is encoded with security information.

This encoding provides a way for Cisco to identify and validate that the module meets the

requirements for the switch.
