Thanks for the responses, I have found that the supplier had shipped me 4 of the same unit… Tx1310nm & Rx 1550nm

 

Getting them to re-ship correctly paired units.

Unless you do 

device(config)#service unsupported-transceiver

and

device(config)#no errdisable detect cause gbic-invalid

assuming you are using the right combination of WDM SFPs on that link.

The second command may be unnecessary on cat65xx platform.

But I guess you are aware of the consequence of using the aforementioned commands…

 

Cheers,

Looks like the line card doesn’t support it according to that doc.

 

I have a pair of: "WS-X6816-GBIC”

Hi All,

 

Anyone got experience with single strand optics on Cisco 6500s?


trying to test some Champion 1 single strand optics and cannot get a link. The GBIC shows up on the interface just never gets a physical link.

 

Thanks

 

Dylan.
