Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) Transceiver MultiSource Agreement (MSA). See the SFF committee’s
INF-8074i specification Rev 1.0 for details.
You can change transceivers while the Switch is operating. You can use different transceivers to
connect to Ethernet switches with different types of fiber-optic connectors.
• Type: SFP+ or QSFP+ connection interface
• Connection speed: 1, 10 or 40 Gigabit per second (Gbps)
To avoid possible eye injury, do not look into an operating fiber-optic
module’s connectors.
