Pluggable transceivers
The IPS can also have pluggable transceivers.
TippingPoint 2500N/5100N/6100N models support SM or MM XFP (10GbE Small Form-Factor
Pluggable) transceivers.
Note:
Only optical transceiver modules (including SFP, XFP, SFP+, and QSFP+) available from
TippingPoint have been validated to achieve optimal performance with TippingPoint products.
Other vendor devices are not supported. Using other vendor devices could be detrimental to proper
operation of the TippingPoint system.
For a list of transceivers supported on N-Platform device modules, refer to the
