The Cisco X2 transceiver module, part number X2-10GB-ZR=, is a reliable interface designed for high-performance network connections. This transceiver supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet operations, and it is specifically optimised for long-range connections over single-mode fibre. One of its standout features is its ability to reach distances up to 80 kilometres using 10GBase-ZR technology, making it ideal for extensive wide-area network (WAN) deployments.
It comes in the industry-standard X2 form factor, allowing compatibility with a wide range of Cisco networking devices that support the 10 Gigabit Ethernet X2 interface. The transceiver module can seamlessly handle high data rates of 10.3125 Gbps and has both transmitter and receiver components. Its optical wavelength is approximately 1550 nm—a key feature for long-distance data transmissions over fibre.
The module has a hot-swappable design, allowing for easy installation or replacement without needing to power down the system. This feature is invaluable for reducing downtime in critical network environments. Additionally, the X2 form factor complies with the IEEE 802.3ae 10 Gigabit Ethernet standard, ensuring wide interoperability within compliant networks and hardware.
Power consumption for the Cisco X2 transceiver is quite efficient in comparison to other 10G modules, yet it does not compromise on performance, providing high-speed data transmission over extensive distances. This module is an excellent choice for service providers or enterprise networks looking for a durable solution for long-range 10GbE applications.
