[nsp] PXF / NSE-1 experiences?

[Brad Bonin (bbonin)]

Gert,

Here is a URL to the Product Info for the SFP's.  There is also a
section that shows relevant HW.

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/partner/products/hw/modules/ps5000/prod_modul
e_series_home.html

Here is the data sheet for the SFP's.

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/partner/products/hw/modules/ps5000/products_d
ata_sheets_list.html

Here is the URL for GBICs.  You can compare the spec's via the data
sheets.

Having never seen a SFP yet - can someone point me at a link describing
the differences?  Is it just form factor?  Or are there more
differences? Is it an industry standard, or Cisco proprietary?

Are all sorts of gbit links (SX/LX/ZX) available as SFP?

What kind of connectors are used?  SC doesn't seem to fit (from what I
can 
see on the pictures)?
