10Gb SFP+ 10GBASE-T capabilities

[Ilya_Semenov]

Hello, everyone,

I've found a very intersting item in the price:

10338 10Gb SFP+ 10GBASE-T 10Gb SFP+, 10GBASE-T RJ45, 30m with Cat6a

Could somebody please tell me:

1) Does it work in all Summit's and 220's SFP+ (10Gb) ports?
2) How many 10338 10Gb SFP+ 10GBASE-T transceivers could I plug into X670 (gen1, gen2)?

Many thanks in advance,

Ilya

P.S. Does Extreme have mGig (2,5Gb, 5Gb, 10Gb) swithes at the moment?

Hi Daniele,

It cannot. You might want to see some more information in Pluggable Transceivers Installation Guide: https://documentation.extremenetworks.com/pluggable/GUID-55346A3F-D21F-410C-B76F-E3083DD19982.shtml

Hope that helps,
Tomasz

which solution you suggest to have 1g BASE-T ports on x670-G2?

Hello,

Has there been any update on this matter? Or would I assume that the #10338 still maintains at half capacity of the x620, x670 switch?

Thanks, that is very interesting.

Hi,

The 10GBase-T SFP+ are not compliant with MSA Type-II specifications, they use more power. Way more. But the main issue is that they get very hot, and that can affect adjacent transceivers. If you test, you may see them working fine, but overtime it's not so sure...

If I remember correctly, in the past I saw the same recommendations for the first-gen of 1G-ZX, then 10G-ZR (for various vendors, I was then working for a reseller).
