A Cisco CWDM chassis enables rack-mounting up to two of the Cisco CWDM passives. Both the transceivers and the passive multiplexers are compliant with the ITU-T G.
694.2 standard defined CWDM grid. The Cisco CWDM SFP solution helps enable the transport of up to eight channels (Gigabit Ethernet or Fibre Channel) over single-mode fiber strands. Easy Deployment and flexible implementation. The Cisco CWDM SFP fits into a standard SFP port supporting the IEEE 802.3z standard on the supported Cisco Systems® platforms. The Cisco CWDM OADM is passive and requires no power. Neither the Cisco CWDM SFP nor the Cisco CWDM passives requires configuration. The Cisco CWDM SFP solution allows for a variety of network configurations-from multichannel point-to-point to hub and meshed-ring configurations. The Cisco CWDM SFP solution takes advantage of a multichannel architecture and the inherent protection of ring architectures. Use of Layer 2 and Layer 3 redundancy and failover mechanisms at the channel endpoints (Cisco CWDM SFP) to build highly available links. Use of two-path link configurations in a ring architecture to provide protection from fiber cuts.The Cisco CWDM SFP solution helps enable enterprises and service providers to increase the bandwidth of an existing Gigabit Ethernet optical infrastructure without adding new fiber strands. The solution can be used in parallel with other Cisco SFP devices on the same platform.
Mesh deployments are a combination of hub-and-spoke and point-to-point or even multiple point-to-point connections in parallel on the same optical link. Deployment of the maximum eight wavelengths allows for different combinations of these scenarios. A Cisco CWDM SFP is a hot-swappable input/output device that plugs into an SFP port or slot of a Cisco switch or router, linking the port with the fiber-optic network. The Cisco CWDM SFPs are multirate parts that support both Gigabit Ethernet and Fibre Channel (1 gigabit and 2 gigabit).
Gigabit Ethernet 1.25 Gbps full-duplex links with an optical link budget of 29 dB. Fibre Channel 1.06 and 2.12 Gbps full-duplex links with an optical link budget of 28 dB. Note: Only connections with patch cords with PC or UPC connectors are supported. Patch cords with APC connectors are not supported.Return accepted within 30 days after receiving the item to notify us of a return. All products are Brand new. We will be happy to assist you.
