those designed to support rates in the range of 10G cable

10GBASE-T or IEEE 802.3an-2006 is a standard released in 2006 to provide 10 Gigabit/second connections over unshielded or shielded twisted pair cables over distances up to 100m(330ft). The twisted pair cable is typically comprised of four twisted pairs of 10GBE XFP TO XFP COPPER 10G Cable under the same jacket, but divided into four individual quadrants separated by a plastic spine extended throughout the entire length of the cable.   Each of these physical form-factors is defined in a standards document know as a Multi-Source Agreement, or MSA. Optical Transceivers types can be generally grouped into those supporting transmission speeds on the order of 1Gbps and those designed to support rates in the range of 10G cable. Optical transceivers form factors associated with 10Gbps transmission are: XFP, X2, XENPAK and SFP+.Some manufacturers of cable are able to achieve the 10G cable with unshielded twisted pairs, while other manufacturers construct their cable with twisted pairs wrapped with a foil shield.  CAT6 cable can be used in a 10G application, but there is a distance limitation of 55M (180ft).  To reach full 100M (330ft) length, CAT6A cable must be used to comply with 10G specifications.  CAT6A or CAT6 “Augmented” is the recommended cable for Ethernet standards 10G networking applications.Fiber Optic Transceiver module is a self-contained component that can both transmit and receive.
