Datasheet
10GBASE-CX4 Copper XFP Transceiver
XFP-CX4
Overview
The XFP-CX4 copper transceiver from MRV Communications
provides cost-effective and reliable bandwidth transport of up
to 12.5 Gigabits over distances of up to 15 meters. The product
provides 4 full-duplex, 3.125 Gigabaud transmit and receive
channels over a single parallel copper cable that is transparent
to the user. It not only offers the ability to scale net bandwidth
in 10 Gigabit increments,it also mates directly with the industry
standard MDI electrical socket.
The XFP-CX4 is ideal for telecom central office and enterprise
data center applications. Whether extending bandwidth
in-system or inter-connecting between systems, the XFP-
CX4 transceiver offers an attractive combination of high
performance and low cost in an industry standard form factor.
