Im looking at enabling 10G on the 12k platform and it looks like the SPA-1x10GE-L-V2 is the one to go for inside a SIP601. But it seems like the SPA only supports single mode SFPs.
The SPA-1x10GE-L-V2 supports XFP, not SFP.
Im finding hard to believe that i need to use single mode fibre to connect the SPA to a switch in the same rack, besides the fact that I then most likely need to use optical attenuators to 'fix' the fact that Im using single mode fibre for such short distance !!
There is no need to use attenuators for 10GBASE-LR even if you run it over a 1 meter cable. Also, I would be very surprised if cisco didn't support SR in that module, where did you get that information?
whats everyone doing with 10G on the 12k out there ?
For 10GE on 12k, I'd say the SIP-601 + SPA1x10GE-L-V2 is the best way to go.
