Extreme Networks SFP Modules

Extreme Networks switches and routers support SFP (small form factor pluggable) interface modules, also known as mini-GBICs.

The topics in this section pertain to SFP modules. For descriptions of SFP+ modules, see Extreme Networks SFP+ Modules.

Extreme Networks devices support both optical and copper SFP modules. Each module provides 100 Mbps or 1000 Mbps optical connections. The type of switch, router, or other component determines the compatible type of SFP module.

Use only Extreme Networks-certified SFP, SFP+, and SFP28 modules in the SFP port on the hardware. These modules are available from Extreme Networks.

For current information about hardware support and the minimum required software for SFP modules, refer to the most recent version of the Extreme Optics website.

The information in this guide about hardware platform support is current as of the date this guide was published. Support for specific SFP types might have been added to other switches or I/O modules besides those listed in this guide.
