X2-10GB-LRM and patch cables

Are mode conditioning cables required for switch to switch connection over multimode fiber (200Meters), if we are using fiber jumpers between device and fiber cable on both ends?
Thanks,

If the fiber between the two switches in not OM3 or OM4 rated multimode fiber (MMF), then you will need to use a Mode Conditioning Patchcords (MCP) at each end of the link; connecting switch #1 and switch #2 to your multimode fiber cable using the MCPs.
Switch #1 ---- MCP ---- Fiber Cable (MMF) ---- MCP ---- Switch #2
The following Cisco document outlines the use parameters of a Mode Conditioning Patchcords (MCP).

X2-10GB-LRM and Fiber Optical Compability

Hello All,
I have a Fiber Optical Cable with the following reference:
- FILOTEX FUMAY TS 06-E-F-6-62.5
I know that it a cable with a core pf 62,5 nm and a 6 pair cable.
I want to intall 2 equipments on both end to pass 10GB with the X2-10GB-LRM.
Does anyone knows the characteristics of this cable ? I could not search nothing in the internet.
Best Regards,
Bruno Petrónio

I do not have any information on the fiber you are asking about. However, it is most likely FDDI grade or OM1. For either of these you will need the mode conditioning patch cord described below and in the bulletin (follow the link).
Cisco X2-10GB-LRM
The Cisco 10GBASE-LRM Module supports link lengths of 220m on standard Fiber Distributed Data Interface (FDDI) grade multimode fiber (MMF). To ensure that specifications are met over FDDI-grade, OM1 and OM2 fibers, the transmitter should be coupled through a mode conditioning patch cord. No mode conditioning patch cord is required for applications over OM3.

X2-10GB-LRM to SFP-10G-SR= Compatibility

Hi,
Can you help me in this ?
I have two 10Gig modules.
On 6500, i have X2-10GB-LRM and on 3750-x i have SFP-10G-SR= .
you can use it with fiber cable and patch cord to connect the two devices?
thanks

Hello,
SFP-10G-SR is a MMF and it uses a LC duplex connector.
X2-10GB-LRM is also a MMF and it uses LC duplex connector.
so they are compatible.

Fiber Patch cord bewteen X2-10GB-SR and SFP-10G-SR

I would like to know which patch cord should I be using between X2-10GB-SR and SFP-10G-SR. The mention of part no would be very helpful.
Thank You

CSCO11584685 wrote:dude, double check before you answer.according to http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/interfaces_modules/transceiver_modules/compatibility/matrix/OL_6974.htmlX2-10GB-SR has SC connector, and the SFP-10G-SR has LC connector. so that would require SC-LC connecitor with MMF, 850-nm wavelength.
Thanks Sulaiman for the correction. I should not have relied purely on memory as it has potential of failing :-).

Fiber Cable to interface between Xenpax-10gb-lr++ and sfp-10g-sr=

I'm extending our network via 10gb fiber to the another building. The 6509E has the XENPAK-10GGB-LR+= which is rated for SMF, 1310-nm wavelength, with SC duplex connector. The other end 4500X has an SFP-10G-SR= that is rated for MMF, 850-nm wavelength with LC duplex connector. Between both sites there will be a SMF cable via G.652 (1310-1550nm) which will be terminated at both end via ST connectors in there respective Fiber distribution boxes. Question, since the SFP-10G-SR= that is ONLY rated for MMF 850-nm wavelength, will this pose any issue? Can you give suggestions on what type patch cables to use? Thanks

"Between both sites there will be a SMF cable via G.652 (1310-1550nm) which will be terminated at both end via ST connectors in there respective Fiber distribution boxes"
Since you have G 652 SMF you can't use SFP-10G-SR MMF as other's wrote earlier. You need to buy new 1310 SFP i.e you neeed
Cisco SFP-10G-LR
The Cisco 10GBASE-LR Module supports a link length of 10 kilometers on standard single-mode fiber (SMF, G.652).
For 4500X you need you need LC-ST patch cable.

SFP and Mode Conditioning Patch Cable

Is it safe to assume any SFP designed for single mode fiber (i.e., MGBLH1) can work with multi-mode fiber if using a mode conditioning patch cable?

It should work. The "mode conditioner" adds a loss in your optical link, typically 2 db.
If you want be sure you must do a link budget.

XENPAK-10GB-LX4 and X2-10GB-SR

Hi all, has anyone connected a FO using 10GB-SR and a XENPAK-10GB-LX4 gbic, could we have a problem if we do so for a cable distance of 80 to 120 meters.
thks in advace.

X2-10GB-SR transceiver module for MMF, 850-nm wavelength, SC duplex connector while the 10GBASE-SR X2 transceiver module for MMF, 850-nm wavelength, SC duplex connector supports link lengths of 300m on standard Fiber Distributed Data Interface (FDDI) grade multimode fiber (MMF). To ensure that specifications are met, the transmitter output should be coupled through a mode conditioning patch cord.

Ethernet Patch Cable from One iMac to AirPort Extreme Please help!

Hi, I have an iMac on one side of my home office, and a cable modem connected to my AirPort Extreme. I just bought a 25 ft. patch cable to run and connect to the router for faster speeds, but it is not working. I tried connecting it to the AirPort and the modem, and I did not get a light on the AirPort extreme or on the modem (I have disabled the wireless functionality on the gateway so it is just a modem now). I noticed that the cable has metal on the sides of the plug. Does that mean anything? How can I connect this and get it working properly?
Please help me!

your post is a little confusing
your imac is on one side of your home, and both your cable modem and extreme are on the other side of the house?
temporarily move the imac to the same side and try a different cable, seems like a cable issue

Minimum Fiber Patch Cable Length for MGBSX1

I want to "stack" a couple 300 series gigabit switches with fiber using a pair of MGBSX1 GBICs and a single LC to LC patch cable.
Is there a minimum supported patch cable length in this configuration?

Howard,
Thank you for posting. You should have no issues using a short fiber patch between the switches. Just make sure the fiber doesn't bend too sharply and get damaged.

I bought a ipod touch second generation from someone at work and it wont sync with itunes. i am using vista on a pc,and i have reloaded itunes 5 times and it still wont sync. i think it is a problem with vista as i had my ipod and sync cable checked outok

i bought a ipod touch from a coworker and it wont sync up with my pc. i have reloaded itunes 5 times, checked my security which is allowing it through and had the ipod and sync cable checked at a local store. i think it has somthing to do with vista operating system, the ipod does not show up in devices and it continues to beep when it is plugged into the usb. this is my first ipod and so far am very frustrated .

Please is an emergenci!!! I put my iPhone 5 to charge and the cable is not working I tried in other pluggers in the house but nothing I don't know what's wrong and I don't have any more battery

Hey I plug my iPhone 5 and the charger is not working and I'm freaking out!!! It never hasn't happened and I just have in this moment 4% I all ready tried on pther pluggers on the house and is the charges that doesn't work. What should I do?

@whimsei,
Hello and thank you for posting back. What it sounds like is the cable that connects to the screen from the motherboard has either come loose or has a issue after the fall.
To fix this it would have to be opened up and the connections checked. If there is an issue with the cable then it would have to be replaced. This will require either you opening up the system yourself and checking the connections and tha cable or sending it in for repair.

Sounds like a 'stuck' Shift key. You could try to take the key off and put it back on yourself (should be some info on that from ifixit) or just take it to your local Apple Store and have them fix it.

I have the apple univeral dock and AV cables and can play videos and slide shows on my TV but not music How do I play the music

I am trying to connect an IPOD classic to my TV to play music
I have the dock and AV cables and can play videos and slide shows but not music

Actually, i figured part of it out. When I'm playing itunes to my Apple Tv and Airport Express stations around the house, then turn on the mirroring, the itunes volume bar goes all the way to zero. I can bring it back up manually, and it will play on Apple TV, but it won't broadcast to multiple Airport Express speakers, the way it was doing before I turned on mirroring. It seems that mirroring turns off the airport express stations.
