Cisco SB SG500XG-8F8T

[garmazhanov]

Hello.

We plan to buy Cisco SB SG500XG-8F8T. whether all ports are equal? Can I use the SFP ports to connect the server directly to the network card or the storage system (such as HP MSA1040, and others) ?

thx

Hello,

All the switchports are 10G ports:- ports # 1 - 8 are copper ports; ports # 9 - 16 are fiber ports.

The SG500XG-8F8T switch supports the following SFP+ modules:-
