Hello, 

I have 3 SFP modules inserted into a stack of thow 2960x, and only one SFP module is detected, the 2 others are show as unknown.

whats are the sfps model no and can you post the show interface for each one

The sfp model is GLC-SX-MM.

 

The one that works:

GigabitEthernet2/0/49 is up, line protocol is up (connected)

Your hard coded speed and duplex on the 1 that is working , while your auto negotiating on the ones that are not

 

Try hard code under interface each side and reseat

speed 1000

duplex full

No the speed and duplex are not hard code. Find the configuration of the interfaces below

 

Current configuration : 224 bytes
!
interface GigabitEthernet2/0/49
 description B-Server
 switchport mode trunk
 switchport nonegotiate
 spanning-tree link-type point-to-point
 channel-protocol lacp
 channel-group 1 mode active
 ip dhcp snooping trust
end

sh run int gig 1/0/49

sorry missed the auto there in first output its hard to read  , if you connect them to switch to switch do they come up to rule out the server side

It appears that if I connect the SFP in the second switch they are recognized, but not in the first switch off the stack.

Looking at the release notes you could be hitting this below , you could try reload if you know the fibre cable is good and no issues with far end servers and the fact the sfp is working fine in 1 switch

1G or 10G in uplink ports of a Catalyst 2960-X stack may not come up after a reload or OIR of SFP/SFP+.

1G or 10G SFP appear as “unknown” in the output of the show int status command.

Workarounds:

Reload the switch.

Downgrade to Cisco IOS Release 15.0(2)EX3.
