Description

This dust cap is a passive protective accessory for the Cisco 8000 Series routers. It is inserted into unused QSFP, QSFP28 and QSFP56-DD ports to keep the optical cages free of dust and contaminants, as recommended in Cisco's hardware installation guides for the 8200, 8600 and 8700 Series.

Each kit contains one cap. It is a simple plug-in part with a handle, so it can be fitted and removed by hand without tools. Because it is passive, it needs no power, no licence and no subscription.

It suits Cisco 8000 Series routers with QSFP, QSFP28 or QSFP56-DD ports, and is useful as a spare for any port that is not currently carrying an optic or cable. Cisco's Nexus 9000 hardware installation guides also reference this part for protecting unused QSFP and OSFP transceiver ports.

Enquire with XS Network Tech for new or used pricing and availability.
