QSFP+ breakout cable to C3KX-NM-10G detecting as Gi instead of Te

Hi,

I am using a server vendor provided QSFP+ breakout cable (something like this) in which one end is connected to a 2U server and 2 out of other 4 ends need to go into a layer-3 device (remaining 2 are unused at this stage). I got a cisco 3560-X with C3KX-NM-10G  and connected the two ports to slot 2 and 4 as per the cisco documentation , however the ports are getting detected as 1G (Gi1/2 and Gi1/4) instead of 10G (Te1/1 and Te1/2)

 

op-sw-1#show inventory 

NAME: "1", DESCR: "WS-C3560X-24"

PID: WS-C3560X-24T-S   , VID: V02  , SN: FDO1530P0UA

NAME: "GigabitEthernet1/4", DESCR: "unsupported"

PID: Unspecified       , VID:      , SN: W6JA1VE

I have already run the commands 

service unsupported-transceiver andno errdisable detect cause gbic-invalid on the device. The port-group considers Te1/2 and Te1/2 as active

op-sw-1#show hw-module port-group all

 Switch   Port-Group      Active      Inactive

 ---------------------------------------------

  1           1           Te1/1     Gi1/2

  1           2           Te1/2     Gi1/4

The show interface status has the following output

Port      Name               Status       Vlan       Duplex  Speed Type

Gi0/24                       notconnect   1            auto   auto 10/100/1000BaseTX

Gi1/1                        notconnect   1            auto   auto Not Present

Gi1/2                        notconnect   1            auto   auto unsupported

Gi1/3                        notconnect   1            auto   auto Not Present

Gi1/4                        notconnect   1            auto   auto unsupported

Te1/1                        notconnect   1            full    10G Not Present

Te1/2                        notconnect   1            full    10G Not Present

Any suggestions to fix this are much appriciated. Thanks!

Also as soon as I insert the 10G end of the QSFP breakout cable into the module, I see the follow error:

*Jan 2 02:12:12.493: %GBIC_SECURITY_CRYPT-4-VN_DATA_CRC_ERROR: GBIC in port Gi1/2 has bad crc
*Jan 2 02:12:12.493: %PHY-4-UNSUPPORTED_TRANSCEIVER: Unsupported transceiver found in Gi1/2
*Jan 2 02:12:17.443: %GBIC_SECURITY_CRYPT-4-VN_DATA_CRC_ERROR: GBIC in port Gi1/4 has bad crc

*Jan 2 02:12:56.106: %PHY-4-UNSUPPORTED_TRANSCEIVER: Unsupported transceiver found in Gi1/4

even though I have already executed the following commands and restarted the switch:
#service unsupported-transceiver
#no errdisable detect cause gbic-invalid
