OC-3 POS SPA Overview
Note The 1000BASE-ZX SFP modules provide an optical power budget of 21.5 dB. You should measure your
cable plant with an optical loss test set to verify that the optical loss of the cable plant (including
connectors and splices) is less than or equal to 21.5 dB. The optical loss measurement must be performed
with a 1550-nm light source.
CWDM SFPs
CWDM SFPs were first supported on the SPA-2GE-7304 in Cisco IOS Release 12.2(28)SB. CWDM
SFPs for the SPA-2GE-7304 come in eight wavelengths that range from 1470 nm to 1610 nm. Color
markings on the devices identify the wavelength to which the Gigabit Ethernet channel is mapped.
Table 3-10 lists the CWDM SFPs with their wavelengths and color codes that are supported on the
SPA-2GE-7304.
Table 3-10 CWDM SFP Wavelengths and Color Coding
For more detailed information on these CWDM SFP modules, see the Cisco CWDM GBIC and SFP
Solution Data Sheet.
OC-3 POS SPA Overview
The 2-Port and 4-Port OC-3c/STM-1 POS SPA is a single-height SPA that installs into one MSC
subslot. The OC-3c/STM-1 POS SPA with small form-factor pluggable (SFP) optical transceiver
modules provides SONET and SDH network connectivity with a per-port bandwidth of 155.52 Mbps.
For more information about SPA bandwidth, see the “Bandwidth Oversubscription” topic in this chapter.
For more information about SPAs and their compatibility with MSCs and modular optics, see the “MSC
and SPA Product Overview” chapter in this guide.
2. A mode-conditioning patch cord is required.
When using the SFP-FCGE-L with 62.5-micron diameter MMF, you must install a mode-conditioning patch cord between the
SFP module and the MMF cable on both the transmit and the receive ends of the link when link distances are greater than 984 ft
(300 m).
We do not recommend using the SFP-FCGE-L and MMF with no patch cord for very short link distance (tens of meters). The
result could be an elevated bit error rate (BER).
3. Dispersion-shifted single-mode fiber-optic cable.
