Cisco10GBASE-T - C9500-48Y4C-A

[Rassic]

Hi, I can’t find anything online but, can I use Cisco10GBASE-T modules eg SFP-10G-T-X SFPs for 2 SVL links on a C9500-48Y4C-A pair?

Are there limitations? Aware of a possible 30metres distance limit and will need 4 x10G SFPs max. DAD will use1000BaseT modules.

Thanks

Hello @Rassic,

you can use the Optics Compatibility Matrix for such purposes and then set appropriate filters.

So for your case it could look like this and you will find that the SFP-10G-T-X is indeed supported on your platform:

HTH!

Hello @Rassic 

Check you IOS version but regarding this documentation/release note bellow, on c9500‑48Y4C (and 24Y4C), each switch supports up to 8 SFP‑10G‑T‑X modules. Adding a 9th will err-disable one port after a reload...

Other thing, on that Cisco website, you can check compatibility between modules and platform with the IOS recommended.

Many thanks

If the 10GBase SFPs are compatible then these modules can be used for Stackwiae Virtual Links?

SVL configurations are not supported on SFP-10G-T-X transceivers, and these optics cannot be used as SVL and or DAD links.

Thank you so much, from the webpage  ...
