The Cisco MDS 9200 Series supports one hot-swappable switching or services module in addition to the
integrated module that is part of the supervisor module.
The Fibre Channel switching modules provide system-wide power management and autonegotiation,
which allows ports to negotiate for speed at the other end of the link. Each module has temperature
sensors and an EEPROM that stores serial number and model number information.
The Fibre Channel port interfaces support hot-swappable Fibre Channel SFP and SFP+ transceivers,
which can be short wavelength (SWL) or long wavelength (LWL). The port interfaces also support
coarse wavelength-division multiplexing (CWDM) and dense wavelength-division multiplexing
(DWDM) SFP transceivers, which can be used for extended long wavelength (ELWL) transmission or
for coarse wavelength-division multiplexing (CWDM) and dense wavelength-division multiplexing
(DWDM). See the

4/44-Port 8-Gbps Host-Optimized Fibre Channel Switching Module
The 4/44-port 8-Gbps Host-Optimized Fibre Channel switching module offers 48 autosensing 1-, 2-,
4-and 8-Gbps Fibre Channel ports and can be used in any of the Cisco MDS 9500 Series chassis and in
the Cisco MDS 9222i Switches. The 4/44-port switching module can be configured in one of two
operational modes: shared bandwidth mode (default) and dedicated bandwidth mode.
