8500 WLC 10G AOC Compatability

[Kevin McCormick]

I know the 8500 WLC says that only 10G SR modules can be used.

We are looking to redo our network configuration and are looking at buying some SFP-10G-AOC3M= assemblies

They do appear to be 10G SR modules with a permanent cable attached.

We can not find these assemblies listed in the compatibility matrix.

I am wondering if the 10G AOC assemblies are considered 10G SR modules and will work with the 8500 WLC.

SFP-10G-AOC3M Transceiver Model is for Nexus 3k series

Very disappointing these do not work.
