Cisco CFP2 400G BiDi
Support line rates up to 400 Gbps over a single-fiber bidirectional transmission. Ideal for fiber-constrained environments.
Product Overview
Bidirectional Transmission
Transmit and receive on a single fiber strand using different wavelengths in each direction.
Fiber Conservation
Cut fiber usage in half compared to conventional optics, ideal for fiber-constrained environments.
Up to 400G
Support line rates up to 400 Gbps with software-configurable modulation and data rates.
CFP2 Form Factor
Proven CFP2 pluggable for Cisco NCS and ASR platforms with established deployment track record.
Configurable Rates
Software-configurable line rates and modulation to balance capacity and reach per link.
Lower Fiber Costs
Reduce fiber lease costs and deployment expenses by using single-fiber bidirectional links.
Features and Benefits
