C form-factor pluggable

The C form-factor pluggable (CFP, 100G form factor pluggable, where C is Latin: centum "hundred")[1] is a multi-source agreement to produce a common form-factor for the transmission of high-speed digital signals. The c stands for the Latin letter C used to express the number 100 (centum), since the standard was primarily developed for 100 Gigabit Ethernet systems.
