IRF physical port restrictions and cabling requirements
Candidate IRF physical ports include the SFP+ ports on the front panel and the SFP+ ports on expansion interface cards. Expansion interface cards must be purchased separately.
For long-distance IRF connections, use the SFP+ transceiver modules in Table 1. For short-distance IRF connections, use the SFP+ cables in Table 2.
