Product Details

Cisco CFP2-to-CPAK Port Adapter features and benefits:

● Provides the performance advantages and availability of Cisco CPAK for 100 G client CFP2 ports

● Complies with IEEE standards for optical interfaces

● Reduces inventory and costs of multiple 100 G form factors across multivendor platforms environments

● Provides green design with up to 45 per cent lower power consumption than comparable CFP2 modules

● The CVR-CFP2-CPAK4 supports 100 Gigabit Ethernet and OTU4 data rates

● The CVR-CFP2-CPAK10 supports a 100 Gigabit Ethernet rate only

● Allows any CPAK module to be used in a CFP2 module-based switch, router, or other optical platform port with a hot-swappable adapter

● Enables interface choice for 4x25G or 10x10G modules

● Supports a pay-as-you-grow model

● Supports digital optical monitoring (DOM)

● Has interoperability with any IEEE-compliant 100GBASE-LR4 or 100GBASE-SR10 form factors

● Provides an easy-to-use pull-release handle that is colour-coded for reach identification

● Comes with Cisco support and reliability  

● Supports the Cisco quality ID feature, which enables a Cisco switch or router to identify whether the module is certified and tested by Cisco
