Modular Optics Compatibility
Some SPAs implement small form-factor pluggable (SFP or XFP
network connectivity. An SFP module is a fiber-optic transceiver device that mounts in the front panel
to provide network connectivity.
Cisco Systems qualifies the SFP modules that can be used with SPAs.
The SPAs accept only the optics modules listed as supported in this document. A check is run every time
Note
an SFP or XFP module is inserted into a SPA, and only those modules that pass this check are usable.

equal to or greater than 10 Gbps.
