Installation Instructions

Possible media include CAT5, single mode fiber, and multimode fiber. Possible connectors
include LC, MT-RJ, and RJ-45.
3. If the media is optical fiber, determine wavelength restrictions or requirements.
To expand available bandwidth on a common optical fiber, use Coarse Wavelength Division
Multiplexing (CWDM) SFP transceivers.
4. Determine if you need digital diagnostic monitoring (DDM). DDM is enabled by default.
Not all SFP transceivers or products support DDM.
Job aid
SFP transceivers are transceiver devices that are used to connect pairs of ports together over
different media types, different distances, and at different price points.
The system also supports CWDM SFP transceivers. CWDM technology consolidates multiple
optical channels on a common optical fiber. CWDM uses multiple wavelengths to expand available
bandwidth.
CWDM SFP transceivers support high speed data communications for Metropolitan Area Networks
(MAN). The system uses a grid of eight CWDM optical wavelengths in both ring and point-to-point
configurations. All components are color-coded by wavelength.
The following table describes the SFP transceivers and SFP+ transceivers including the reach
provided by various SFP transceivers. This table is informational only—not all Avaya Ethernet
switching and routing products support all the SFP transceivers listed here. Avaya supports
Important:
The attainable cable length can vary depending on the quality of the fiber optic cable used.
