Hi team,

 

I have 2 FMC 2600 hardware appliances. i want to setup dedicated link for both FMC synchronization. so i decided to use Fiber port. what would be the recommended SFP module speed (1G or 10G).

 

Thanks in advance.

The configuration guide doesn't list any specific requirements for bandwidth:

So you are fine using whichever you have on hand. If I were doing it, I'd normally not use a dedicated link. But if that was a concern then just get a twinax cable with built-in SFP+ so you have 10 Gbps pretty inexpensively.
