Want to use Cisco module 10G (Ethernet )

[rechard_david]

Dear All,

1- Do you know Does Cisco has module 10G with Ethernet.?

2- For module 10G does it can uplink with switch that has module 1G ?

Best Regards,

Hi

Usually the 10G ports are handle with fiber SFP+, but there are some modules with 10G ports for copper 10G-BaseT. Example: 

https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/interfaces-modules/catalyst-6500-16-port-10-gigabit-ethernet-copper-module/index.html

The modules for 10G usually have multigiga ports it means you can use 1G or 10G through the same port. The suggestion is always verify the technical specs for the modules and compatibility with the platform.

Hope it is useful

Dear Julio,

Thanks for you help.

any way , i would like to ask you some question for clarify .

Currently i have switch WS-C2960X-48TD-L this switch support slot 10G SFP , do i use module 1G SFP on this slot?

and other question is : i have WS-C2960X-48TS-L for side (A) using module SFP 1G and link to WS-C2960X-48TD-L for Side (B)  with moudule 10G SFP , is it working other ?

Hi

Yes, the module slots are multigiga ports so you can use it with 1G SFP or 10G SFP+. Now if you want to use 1G, both ends must use the same SFP for 1G for example GLC-T or GLC-SX-MMD in both ends but you cannot use 10G SFP+ with 1G SFP.

This link is useful to know the compatible SFP:
