Hello, I realize this is a forever ago question but I am needing some current confirmation on this switch before I build my network out. So this switch has four 10-gigabit uplink ports - XG1 thru XG4. Can I use XG4 to uplink to the router/firewall and also use XG1 and XG2 to connect to a workstation and server to give them 10-gigabit connectivity? The switch has the latest firmware 2.5.9.15 installed.

4x 10G ports (2x 10GBase-T/SFP+ combo + 2x SFP+) - yes you can as per the guidence
SFP Port (if present)—The small form-factor pluggable (SFP) ports are
connection points for modules, so the switch can link to other switches.
These ports are also commonly referred to as miniGigaBit Interface
Converter (miniGBIC) ports. The term SFP is used in this guide.
• SFP ports are compatible with Cisco modules MGBT1, MGBSX1,
MGBLH1, MGBLX1, MGBBX1, MFELX1, MFEFX1, and MFEBX1, as well as
other brands of modules.
• Some SFP interfaces are shared with one other RJ-45 port, called a
combo port. When the SFP is active, the adjacent RJ-45 port is
disabled.
• The LEDs of the corresponding RJ-45 port flash green to respond to the
SFP interface traffic.

yes you are right. make sure speeds are matching for both ends (servers, fw, etc) towards switch.
