Hi Cisco community, I have a question regarding DAC with 40 and 100 Gig. Is it possible to "mix&match" Cisco switches with Dell switches? Details: - Switch A: Nexus C93240YC-FX2 - Swtich B: Dell S5248F DAC: QSFP-100G-CU2M= or QSFP-H40G-CU2M= Thank you and kind regards Nils Hanstein

Hi
i havent tested this don't use Dell but if you look at the data sheet it doesn't really state interoperability between the two but then if you go to buy the cable on this website looks to be exact same cable and specs on each page , once its running same ieee should be fine but i would check with vendor your purchasing it off , should be able to tell you as well
