SFP PORT on ISR4451 NOT COMING UP WHEN CONNECTED TO A 3850

I have connected an sfp module to a 4451. From the 4451 to a 3850 switch. Everything  

Looks fine on the 3850 when I connect a loop. But a loop on the isr4451 does not come up. I don't know what's wrong.

According to the data sheet (attached) you need to run at least XE 3.10.

 

Also, the module is DOM compatible. Try to turn this feature off globally and check if that makes a difference:

 

4451X(config)#transceiver type all

4451X(config-xcvr-type)#no monitoring

4451X(config-xcvr-type)#end

Hello,

 

which SFP module, and what is it connected to on the 4451 ?

Hello

Is this a Fibre or Copper connection - do you have the correct SFP for the switch?
If its a fibre connection have you swapped the RX/TX ends of the cable and tested?

I am using a fiber connection. I have swapped the cable. I have also used the two ends of the same cable to loop to acertain the cable is on on the switch. and it fired up. I have moved the same SFP on the Router and did the loop. and it fired up. it meant to me the SFPs are working and the cables are working. the SFP module is a GLC-LH-SMD. I also changed to a GLC-SX-MM and lastly to GLC-SX-MM-RGD

What is the IOS version on the router and the switch?

This sounds like CSCvf96466.
