10GE Interface Card
The 10GE interface card (part numbers IPS-2X10GE-SR-INT and IPS-2X10GE-SR-INT=) provides two
10000 Base-SX (fiber) interfaces. The IPS 4270-20 supports up to two 10GE interface cards for a total
of four 10GE fiber interfaces.
The card ports require a multi-mode fiber cable with an LC connector to connect to the SX interface of
the IPS 4270-20. The 10GE interface card does not support hardware bypass.
Figure 5-4 shows the 10GE interface card.
