3560CX SFP GLC modules

Hi All, 

I'm having a hard time to bring up my GLC-T (3rd party) modules with 3560CX compact switches. I tried with SFP-GE-T module as well. Every time when I pulg it says "  %PHY-4-SFP_NOT_SUPPORTED: The SFP in Gi0/16 is not supported" 

I enabled following commands as well. but no use, expect port stop goes to err-disable mode. 

no errdisable detect cause gbic-invalid

service internal

service unsupported-transceiver

Am I missing somthing or 3560cx doesn't support at all? 

Thanks in advance.

GLC-T modules will be supported for 2960CX and 3560CX from version 15.2(5)E.

Hmm. I have to put the new ios and see how it goes. But, Cisco document says hardware itself its not going to support due to GLC-T need more power than a normal SFP. Unless Cisco has really changed hardware infrastructure  I highly doubt its  going to work.

Do you have any supporting document saying its going to support on version 15.2. (5)E?

Thanks

I have 2960CX and 3560CX switches, where I have installed 15.2(5)E, and I can confirm that they now work with GLC-T modules.

Normally the thermal limitations of the switch is 45°C. But when using GLC-T SFP modules, it is between 20 and 35°C depending of the physical installation (read source).

HI, do you know if the 3560CX works with GLC-TE? In the compatiblity matrix it is not clear to me.

Thanks in advance.
