Solution 2248985.1 : How to Identify SFP Media Signaling Interfaces

Applies to:

Acme Packet 6300
Acme Packet 4600
Acme Packet 4500
Acme Packet 6100
Information in this document applies to any platform.

Purpose

This reference document is intended for rapid identification of media signaling interfaces installed within an Oracle Session Border Controller.

Details

The signaling and media interfaces provide network connectivity for the signaling and media traffic for the Session Border Controller. This section describes the small form factor pluggable devices that may be installed within a SBC.

Note: Only transceivers qualified by Oracle or Acme Packet can be used in these devices. The transceivers are inserted into the NIU. Mixed transceiver types are unsupported. All available transceiver locations must be populated with the same SFP type based upon compliance testing.

10G SFP+ Transceivers

Compatability: 4500, 4600, 6100, 6300

SFP+ Identification

Black Latch	Blue Latch
Multi Mode (SX) -- This transceiver features a black bale clasp latch.	Single Mode (LX) -- This transceiver features a blue bale clasp latch.

Label: "850nm LASER PROD"	Label: "1310nm LASER PROD."
Cable: An Aqua-colored fiber optic cable.	Cable: Yellow colored fiber optic cable.

Gigabit SFP Transceivers

Compatability: 3820, 3900, 4250, 4500, 4600

SFP Identification

Black Latch	Blue Latch	Yellow Latch
The Black latch indicates the SFP is a multi-imode transceiver.	A Blue latch indicates the SFP is a single-mode transceiver.	A Yellow latch indicates a gigabit Ethernet copper SFP transceiver.

Label: SX 850 nm 550 m multi-mode	Label: LX 1310 nm 10 km single-mode
Cable: Orange colored fiber optic cable	Cable: Yellow colored fiber optic cable.	Cable: Cat 5 or 6 Ethernet Cables
