Frequently Asked Questions

Cisco Original 16 Gb Fibre Channel SW SFP+ Transceiver Module (DS-SFP-FC16G-SW)

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ's)



What is the Cisco DS-SFP-FC16G-SW?
  • It is a 16Gbps Fibre Channel shortwave SFP+ transceiver used in Cisco networking equipment to transmit data at high speeds over multimode fiber.
    • What type of fiber is compatible with this transceiver?
  • It is compatible with multimode fiber (MMF).
    • What is the maximum transmission distance of the Cisco DS-SFP-FC16G-SW?
  • Up to 100 meters on OM3 fiber and 125 meters on OM4 fiber.
    • What connector type does it use?
  • It uses an LC duplex connector.
    • What is the wavelength of this transceiver?
  • The wavelength is 850nm (nanometers).
    • What data rates are supported?
  • It supports 4Gbps, 8Gbps, and 16Gbps Fibre Channel speeds.
    • Is the Cisco DS-SFP-FC16G-SW hot-swappable?
  • Yes, it is hot-swappable, which allows installation and removal without turning off the device.
    • Which Cisco switches support this transceiver?
  • It works with several Cisco MDS series switches and several Nexus switches. Always reference the official Cisco compatibility matrix.
    • Does this module support Digital Optical Monitoring (DOM)?
  • Yes, it supports DOM (Digital Optical Monitoring), which allows real-time monitoring of optical power, temperature, and voltage.
    • Can it be used in Ethernet applications?
  • No, it is made exclusively for Fibre Channel applications, not Ethernet.
    • What is the power consumption of the Cisco DS-SFP-FC16G-SW?
  • It typically consumes less than 1W of power.
    • Does this transceiver require any special configuration?
  • It requires no extra configuration and works seamlessly with supported Fibre Channel switches.
    • Is the Cisco DS-SFP-FC16G-SW backward compatible with lower-speed transceivers?
  • Yes, it is backward compatible with 8Gbps and 4Gbps Fibre Channel ports.
    • What environmental conditions can this transceiver operate in?
  • It operates within a temperature range of 0°C to 70°C (32°F to 158°F).
    • How do I check if the transceiver is working properly?
  • To verify the health and diagnostics of a Cisco device, run the show interface transceiver detail command.
    • What Cisco part number corresponds to this transceiver?
  • The official part number is DS-SFP-FC16G-SW.
    • Can I mix this transceiver with different speeds in the same switch?
  • Yes, but the interface will negotiate the lowest common speed among the connected devices.
    • How do I install the Cisco DS-SFP-FC16G-SW?
  • Insert it into an SFP+ slot on a suitable switch and attach the fiber optic cable to the LC ports.
    • Is this transceiver supported by third-party networking equipment?
  • While built for Cisco equipment, it may function with third-party brands, but Cisco does not guarantee compatibility.
    • Can the Cisco DS-SFP-FC16G-SW be used for long-distance connections?
  • No, this is a shortwave (SW) transceiver that uses multimode fiber to communicate over short distances. Consider using a longwave (LW) variation for long distance communication.
