10GBase-CX4 transceiver for data networking

The Axiom X2-10GB-CX4-AX is a hot-pluggable X2 transceiver module designed for 10 Gigabit Ethernet links over CX4 copper cabling. It targets network engineers upgrading or repairing switch and router ports in data-centre environments.

Check MSA compliance and CX4 port availability

Verify that the host equipment supports the X2 form factor and lists MSA compliance in its hardware matrix. Confirm an open CX4 10GBASE-CX4 port exists on the line card or chassis before ordering.

Low-profile module with RoHS certification

The transceiver measures .5 inches high by 1.4 inches wide by 3.6 inches deep and weighs 4.50 oz, allowing dense side-by-side installation. RoHS certification confirms restricted-substance compliance for regulated deployments.

Questions about this item

What does the package contain and is anything else required to install the X2-10GB-CX4-AX?

The transceiver ships as a single X2 module pre-coded for OEM compatibility; a CX4 copper cable of the desired length must be purchased separately to complete the link.

How do I decide between this 10GBase-CX4 module and other X2 transceivers?

Choose this model only when the switch or router port is a CX4 10GBase-CX4 interface; for SFP+, XFP or fibre-based X2 ports a different transceiver type is required.

What does the 10 Gigabit Ethernet rating mean once the module is seated in a live chassis?

It delivers a full-duplex 10 Gb/s copper link over CX4 cabling up to the MSA-defined distance, with RoHS-compliant construction and 4.50 oz weight in a .5 x 1.4 x 3.6 inch form factor.
