For an up-to-date list of supported CFP optical modules and SFP+ transceivers along with software requirements, refer to either the 40-Gigabit Ethernet Transceivers Compatibility Matrix or the 10-Gigabit Ethernet Transceivers Compatibility Matrix both available on cisco.com.
Module front panel LEDs	STATUS Indicates the status of the module. •Green—All diagnostics pass; the module is operational. •Orange—The module is booting or running diagnostics; an overtemperature condition has occurred. •Red—A fault has been detected in the module. •Off—The module is not powered up. ID •Blinking blue—The module is being identified for attention. The LED is turned on by a CLI command to aid servicing personnel in identifying the module. SLOT 1, 2, 3, 4 Indicates the operational status of the CFP slot. •Green—Slot is occupied and operational. •Alternate flashing green and yellow—Slot is identified for customer attention. The alternate color flashing operates in conjunction with the flashing blue ID LED. •Off—Slot is empty. LINK Indicates the link status of each port. When operating with 40-Gigabit CFP transceiver modules, the first LINK LED under each CFP slot indicates the status of the 40-Gigabit port. When operating with 10-Gigabit SFP+ transceivers, the four grouped LEDs associated with each optical bay indicate the port status of the four SFP+ transceivers in the FourX converter. •Green—The port is active (the link is connected and operational). •Yellow—The port is disabled. •Alternate flashing green and yellow—Port is identified for customer attention. The alternate color flashing operates in conjunction with the flashing blue ID LED. •Off—The port is not active or the link is not connected.
