Description
The Cisco CVR-X2-SFP TwinGig Converter Module transforms a single X2 port into two Gigabit Ethernet SFP (Small Form-Factor Pluggable) slots. This allows greater flexibility in mixed-speed environments, offering an easy and cost-effective way to migrate or interoperate between Gigabit and 10-Gigabit Ethernet networks.

Information About CVR-X2-SFP
The CVR-X2-SFP is a plug-in module designed to be inserted into a Cisco X2 slot on supported Cisco Catalyst switches. Once installed, it provides two mini-GBIC (SFP) slots, each capable of delivering 1 Gbps of Gigabit Ethernet connectivity. This is particularly useful in networks where modular uplink options are required without investing in separate 10G-capable hardware. Designed specifically for use with Cisco Catalyst 3560E and 3750E series switches, this converter module enables organizations to maximize their existing infrastructure investments.
Key Features:
-
Dual SFP Conversion: Converts one X2 slot into two 1-Gigabit SFP slots for greater interface flexibility.
-
Versatile Compatibility: Designed for a range of Cisco Catalyst switches including 3560E and 3750E series.
-
Seamless Integration: Plug-in design enables quick installation without service disruption.
-
Gigabit Ethernet Support: Delivers data transfer rates of up to 1 Gbps per port using standard mini-GBIC modules.
-
Compact Design: Space-saving dimensions make it easy to incorporate into any rack-mounted switch setup.
The CVR-X2-SFP is a simple and efficient upgrade path for networks needing flexible Gigabit uplinks while preserving 10G port availability.
