Cisco CFP2-to-CPAK Port Adapter 

Product Overview 

The Cisco

®

 CFP2-to-CPAK adapter allows a Cisco C Form-Factor Pluggable 2 (CPAK) optical module to be 

plugged into a CFP2 port and to emulate an optical CFP2 100G Module. 

Features and Benefits 

The Cisco CFP2-to-CPAK port adapter provides the ability to use the pluggable Cisco CPAK 100GBASE Module in 

any Cisco platform with a CFP2 client port. The Cisco CPAK module is the lowest power consuming pluggable 

100G module available in a variety of IEEE standard optical interfaces from 100GBASE-SR10 to 100GBASE-

ER4L. Some platforms may even be able to take advantage of CPAK and Cisco AnyPort breakout technology, 

enabling 10 G, 40 G or 100 G interconnects to a 100 G port. 

There are two port adapters to support Cisco CPAK modules. The CVR-CFP2-CPAK4 supports modules with a 

4x25G electrical interface such as CPAK-100G-LR4 and CPAK-100G-ER4L. The CVR-CFP2-CPAK10 supports 

modules with a 10x10G electrical interface such as CPAK-100G-SR10 and CPAK-10X10G-LR. The CVR-CFP2-

CPAK4 adapter supports the two aggregate data rates of 100 Gbps Ethernet and Optical Transport Network (OTN) 

rates. The CVR-CFP2-CPAK10 supporty only the 100GBase Ethernet data rate. Both adapters are optically, 

electrically, and functionally compliant to IEEE 802.3ba/802.3ae, ITU G.709/G.959 standards. 

Main features include: 

● 

Provides the performance advantages and availability of Cisco CPAK for 100 G client CFP2 ports 

● 

Complies with IEEE standards for optical interfaces 

● 

Reduces inventory and costs of multiple 100 G form factors across multivendor platforms environments 

● 

Provides green design with up to 45 percent lower power consumption than comparable CFP2 modules 

● 

The CVR-CFP2-CPAK4 supports 100 Gigabit Ethernet and OTU4 data rates 

● 

The CVR-CFP2-CPAK10 supports 100 Gigabit Ethernet rate only 

● 

Allows any CPAK module to be used in a CFP2 module-based switch, router, or other optical platform port 

with hot swappable adapter 

● 

Enables interface choice for 4x25G or 10x10G modules 

● 

Supports a pay-as-you-grow model 

● 

Supports digital optical monitoring (DOM) 

● 

Has interoperability with any IEEE-compliant 100GBASE-LR4 or 100GBASE-SR10 form factors 

● 

Provides easy-to-use pull-release handle that is color coded for reach identification 

● 

Comes with Cisco support and reliability 

● 

Supports the Cisco quality ID feature, which enables a Cisco switch or router to identify whether the module 

is certified and tested by Cisco
