Frequent Ask Questions
  • What is the Cisco FET-40G Fabric Extender Transceiver?

    The Cisco FET-40G is a fabric extender transceiver module designed to support high-speed data transmission over fiber optic cables, specifically for Cisco hardware components including switches and routers within data centers.

  • Which Cisco products are compatible with the FET-40G transceiver?

    The Cisco FET-40G transceiver is compatible with various Cisco switches and routers that support 40-Gbps Ethernet interfaces including Nexus series switches.

  • What type of fiber does the FET-40G transceiver use?

    The Cisco FET-40G transceiver uses multimode fiber (MMF) for data transmission. It generally connects to Cisco-powered devices using multimode fiber optic cables with MPO connectors.

  • Can the FET-40G transceiver be used for long-distance connections?

    No, the Cisco FET-40G transceiver is designed for short-reach connections. It typically supports link lengths up to 100 meters on OM3 multimode fiber and up to 150 meters on OM4 multimode fiber.

  • Is the Cisco FET-40G hot-swappable?

    Yes, the Cisco FET-40G transceiver is hot-swappable, which means it can be inserted or removed from a compatible device without the need for powering down the system.

  • How does the FET-40G transceiver assist in high data rate transmission?

    The FET-40G transceiver facilitates transmission at rates up to 40 Gigabits per second (Gbps), enabling high-bandwidth applications and services within data centers and enterprise networks.

  • Does the FET-40G support Digital Optical Monitoring (DOM)?

    No, the Cisco FET-40G transceiver does not support Digital Optical Monitoring (DOM). It is primarily focused on providing high-speed data connections for fabric extenders.
