Solved: WS-X6704-10GE -10GBASE-SR

Hi All,

We have a 10G DWDM circuit terminated on 7600-sup720-3bxl (WS-X6704-10GE,10GBASE-SR) interface and we get below optical receive power measured on the router

sh interfaces tenGigabitEthernet 9/2 transceiver (o/p modified for simplicity)

Optical

Rx Power

Port (dBm)

------- --------

Te9/2 -2.6

We are trying to understand,what would be the cisco recommended optical rx power levels. Any help on this would be really appreciated.

Thanks

Regards

Per the following data sheet, the XENPAK-10GB-SR module has a receiver range of -1.0 (max) to -9.9 (min). Your -2.6 dBm input would fall within the range.

What transmit equipment (specs) is connected to this receiver port? Might you have a optical power meter handy to verify the router's reading (I can dream)?

Have you checked the Cisco 10GBase DWDM XENPAK Modules Data Sheet?

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/collateral/modules/ps5455/ps6576/product_data_sheet0900aecd801f9333.html

Hope this helps.

Hi leolaohoo,

Thanks for the reply. We using a non-colured XENPAK and no wavelength mapping upto the router. Do you have a link where there is a data sheet for normal xenpak terminating 10gig interface on 10Gbase-SR interface type.

Thanks once again
