Can I use C2960X-FIBER-STK module ports as normal sfp+ data ports on the 2960x?

One of our customers have a requirement of 48 port POE switch along with 4 sfp+ ports. I was thinking of populating the 2960x-48LPD-L with the C2960X-FIBER-STK module to get the additional 2 sfp+ ports( 2 sfp+ already present on the switch by default). Can I use the C2960X-FIBER-STK ports as normal sfp+ data port?

Flex-stack extended fiber ports can be configured as either network ports or stack ports.

You cannot however, configure one port as a network port and the other as a stack port so they need to be the same. 

 

To convert the port from the default stacking to a network port use the command:

# switch 1 hstack-port 1 Tengigabitethernet 1/1/1

The switch needs to be reloaded after the configuration is changed and saved to take effect

 

To convert the port back to stacking use the command:

# no switch 1 hstack-port 1

The switch needs to be reloaded after the configuration is changed and saved to take effect
