NEW IEEE 802.3aq enables cost effective 10 gig network adoption

NEW IEEE 802.3.aq enables cost effective 10 gig network adoption

Over 78% of the fiber deployed on the campus and in building backbones are multimode fibe.

Cost effective upgrade to 10 Gig require new Fiber inetrfacing , NEW IEEE standard 802.3aq addresses this issue

Support of distance up to approx 200 Meters on all grades of MMF , Yes , You got it right if you have OM1 Fiber installed you can have it upgraded to 10 Gig

Cisco is the first in the industru to offer 10 G Base - LRM (long Range Multimode) Optical intreface to be used in Campus high speed LAN

Cisco SFP-10G-LRM

The Cisco 10GBASE-LRM Module supports link lengths of 220m on standard Fiber Distributed Data Interface (FDDI) grade multimode fiber (MMF). To ensure that specifications are met over FDDI-grade, OM1 and OM2 fibers, the transmitter should be coupled through a mode conditioning patch cord.

No mode conditioning patch cord is required for applications over OM3. For additional information on mode conditioning patch cord requirements please see:

thought to reboot and test it , When i reboot it and i was .... OOOOOHHHHH

Hell how can i miss this minute thing and it took me 3 Hours to troubleshoot, and i was about to .... Log a call with Cisco Tac ,


It was config register setting which causes the system software to ignore the contents of NVRAM


and the fix is simple

Hope you don't spend that much time ... and you googled it first

proximity Problems during phonecalls sometimes when I end calls my fone Menu is in the middle of something else .

Offical statement about signals

Gripping any mobile phone will result in some attenuation of its antenna performance, with certain places being worse than others depending on the placement of the antennas. This is a fact of life for every wireless phone. If you ever experience this on your iPhone 4, avoid gripping it in the lower left corner in a way that covers both sides of the black strip in the metal band, or simply use one of many available cases.
