Quick Answer: Is the POM-OC48-SR-LC-C compatible with my switch?
Pro Disk Network validates every POM-OC48-SR-LC-C against the target switch's published compatibility matrix before shipment. If you let us know your switch model and firmware version, we will confirm fitment and code the module appropriately (Cisco-coded, Juniper-coded, HPE-coded, etc.) at no extra charge.
How fast does the POM-OC48-SR-LC-C ship?
If in stock, the POM-OC48-SR-LC-C ships same business day on US orders placed before 3 pm ET. Most US ZIP codes receive next-business-day or 2-day delivery via FedEx/UPS Ground or Express. Bulk and project orders shipping in pallets are typically dispatched within 24-48 hours.
The POM-OC48-SR-LC-C is deployed by US enterprises, MSPs, government, and education customers across multiple infrastructure scenarios. Below are the most common deployment patterns Pro Disk Network sees in real-world orders.
Spine-Leaf Fabric — Top-of-rack 25G/100G aggregation between leaf and spine switches. Match speed and form factor across both endpoints.
Server Uplink — 10G/25G server-to-leaf uplink — pair with matching DAC or AOC at the host NIC to avoid optic mismatch.
DCI (Data Center Interconnect) — Inter-DC routing or aggregation. LR4/LR8 transceivers for 10–80 km, ER4 for 40 km, ZR4 for coherent long-haul.
Campus Distribution — Catalyst-class campus distribution between IDF and MDF closets. PoE+ where wireless APs and IP phones share infrastructure.

Frequently Asked Questions about POM-OC48-SR-LC-C
Is the POM-OC48-SR-LC-C a genuine Cisco part?
Yes. Pro Disk Network sources every POM-OC48-SR-LC-C as factory-original Cisco inventory. New units arrive sealed in OEM packaging; refurbished units are pulled from decommissioned Cisco servers, surface-tested, and re-warranted by Pro Disk Network for 90 days.
Is the POM-OC48-SR-LC-C compatible with my switch?

Optic Coding, Vendor Lock-In, and Multi-Vendor Compatibility
Networking optics — SFP, SFP+, QSFP+, QSFP28 — are physically interoperable across vendors but logically restricted by firmware coding. The POM-OC48-SR-LC-C is coded for a specific vendor family at our factory step before shipping, which preserves the OEM warranty workflow and allows the optic to be recognised without ‘service unsupported-transceiver’ CLI overrides. Mixing third-party optics with same-vendor optics in the same chassis is safe; mixing across vendor codings sometimes triggers warnings in the switch log.
Bandwidth Sizing for Spine-Leaf, EVPN-VXLAN, and Hyperconverged Storage
For EVPN-VXLAN overlays, the POM-OC48-SR-LC-C carries the underlay tunnels in addition to the workload traffic. Plan for VXLAN encapsulation overhead (50 bytes) plus MTU headroom; set the underlay MTU to 9216 (jumbo frames) and the overlay MTU to 9000. Make sure both the POM-OC48-SR-LC-C and the connected NICs support jumbo frames — some older NICs cap at 9000-byte payloads even when jumbo-enabled.
