4-Port 10-Gigabit Ethernet Modular Port Adapter
The 4-Port 10-Gigabit Ethernet MPA provides four cages for XFP Ethernet optical interface modules
that operate at a rate of 10-Gbps. The four XFP modules can be 10-Gigabit Ethernet multimode
connections.
Each XFP cage on the 4-Port 10-Gigabit Ethernet MPA has an adjacent A/L LED visible on the front
panel. The A/L LED indicates the status of the associated XFP port.
