Updated: 11/23/09 10:23 AM

The following specifications are for the available Fiber Gigabit Ethernet modules and the platforms that support those modules.

Note: Only SFP modules provided by F5 Networks are supported. For more information, refer to SOL8153: F5 Support of third-party hardware components.

Important: The end user must ensure suitability of both the optical fiber and the laser transceiver on the other end.
