3850 Switch Upgrade

[gerald_phan]

All,

We currently have a WS-C3850-48P switch acting as a core on our internal network. We would like to add a C3850-NM-8-10G module to increase our bandwidth capacity for our backbone, however the datasheets shows the switch cannot support the module. Is there anything we can physically do to upgrade our existing switch to support the module?

Thank you.

Get the model which can support them:  The 24- and 48-port mGIG or the 48-port SFP+ model switch.
