D-Link modules with 1 or 2 CX4 ports provide enterprises with affordable, high-performance network connectivity at 10 GE speeds over coaxial copper cable. The modules do not require the installation of expensive transceivers, eliminating the need to purchase them.
Modules with a CX4 port are installed in open slots of D-Link Gigabit switches. When operating in full duplex mode, the port provides bandwidth up to 20 Gbit/s. The modules can be used for high-speed stacking of switches or connecting them to a chassis-based root switch. They can also be used when connecting servers or network storage devices with CX4 support.
Modules with a CX4 port are an ideal solution for organizing high–speed network connectivity inside high-performance computing clusters and server rooms. Specifications Mode Full Duplex (20 Gbit/s)
