X2 Installation
An X2 transceiver is a hot swappable input/output device that plugs into the 10-Gigabit Ethernet port of
the supervisor engine and links the supervisor engine with a fiber-optic network. X2 transceivers are
online swappable.
Full documentation of the X2 transceiver is in the
You may also use Cisco TwinGig and Cisco OneX converter modules in these ports. Installation
documentation for Cisco TwinGig converter modules can be found in the
TwinGig Converter Module.

Invisible laser radiation may be emitted from disconnected fibers or connectors. Do not stare into
Warning
beams or view directly with optical instruments. Statement 1051
OL-19334-02
To prevent ESD damage, follow normal handling procedures.
When the transceiver is stored or when a fiber-optic cable is not plugged in, always keep plugs in
the optical bores.
The most common source of contaminants in the optical bores is debris picked up on the ferrules of
the optical connectors. Use an alcohol swab or Kim-Wipe to clean the ferrules of the optical
connector.
