[c-nsp] SFPs (Third party) - ordered "standard" LH, but got "ZX"

[CiscoNSP List]

Thanks - As per my last post, I tend to agree...on the ME's they are reporting as LH...only on the ASRs they are reporting as ZX.



So, it would "appear" that they are all LH....hopefully someone can confirm based of the TX/RX readings I provided?



Cheers for all the responses....very helpful.

Hey,

Its a pretty common behaviour since all machines read from different places on the EEP rom.

Normally it is Cisco ASR that reports from a different place of EEP.

The SFP is a LH/LX optics, but reports as a ZX.
Example:
NAME: "GigabitEthernet 0/7", DESCR: "1000BASE-ZX SFP"
                                           Optical   Optical
           Temperature  Voltage  Current   Tx Power  Rx Power
Port       (Celsius)    (Volts)  (mA)      (dBm)     (dBm)
---------  -----------  -------  --------  --------  --------
Gi0/7        41.9       3.29      18.9      -6.8 --   -4.4

Hi Everyone,



As per title....ordered a bunch of our usual single mode SFP's. and they are badged as LH, but when inserted into router/switch, they report as ZX.....can I connect our LH to the new ZX ones (I dont have a router/switch handy to test), and have to ship them interstate.....but obviously dont want to if they are no compatible with our existing LH SFP's



Cheers.
