LX4 XENPAK
The LX4 XENPAK supports multimode fiber (MMF) in intra-building connections and single-mode fiber
(SMF) for interbuilding connections. The LX4 XENPAK has SC connectors.
The LX4 XENPAK requires the software versions listed in Table 7.
For technical specifications for the LX4 XENPAK, see Appendix B, “Technical Specifications.”
LW XENPAK
To recognize the LW XENPAK module, your Extreme Networks switch must have the minimum
software release listed in Table 8.
NOTE
BlackDiamond 10808 switches and BlackDiamond 12804 switches running software earlier than ExtremeXOS
11.4.2.3 do not support jumbo-size frame for the LW XENPAK. These switches support only standard-size frame for
the LW XENPAK.
BlackDiamond 10808 switches and BlackDiamond 12804 switches running the latest version of ExtremeXOS 11.4
support jumbo-size frame for the LW XENPAK with a 5% decrease in performance, allowing for 95% of the
maximum WAN PHY traffic.
