The WS-C4500X-F-16SFP+ offers 16 SFP+/SFP 10 Gigabit ports on the IP Base licence and is filed under Cisco switches. The F in its name refers to the back-to-front airflow direction, and no power supply is installed when the switch is supplied.
ZR-reach 10G optics are not supported in ports 1 to 16 of this airflow version; they are limited to the optional uplink module. Two switches of the same model can be paired as a Virtual Switching System, which needs IOS XE 3.4.0SG or later.

The platform also offers an optional 2 GB SD card and USB Type A storage up to 4 GB, with SRAM DDR-II as the memory type. All 16 ports are 10 Gigabit and accept SFP+ or SFP optics.
