S3260 VIC1300 Breakout Cable Compatibility

[CNM88]

Can anyone confirm if a breakout cable is supported by the S3260 storage server with an embedded VIC1300? This will uplink to a 6454 FI. The datasheet and spec sheets don't seem to confirm this detail.

Can you confirm the type of optics/cables you are attempting to use?

Wes, the type of optic isn't set in stone yet but we are considering a QSFP+ breakout cable. Based on that compatibility matrix you shared, it looks like it will work just fine with the 6400 FI. Thank you for sharing that. I did a lot of searching but didn't think to look  in the configuration guide.
