Hi All
we have two N56128 and DELL BladeSwitche MXL 10/40
I tried to connect the MXL Switch to the Nexus by VPC (2 x 40GBit) via Cisco QSFP-H40G-CU5M cable.

MXL
Unfortunately I don't get any active links. The interfaces on both sides remain in status down.
Is there a special setting on the Nexus to use the QSFP-H40G-CU5M?
The cables on both switches are detected
