SFP+ Slots

The switches have four SFP+ slots that support the following types of SFP
1000Mbps and SFP+ 10Gbps transceivers:

ˆ

1000Base-SX/LX SFP transceivers

ˆ

Single-port BiDi 1000Base-LX SFP transceivers

ˆ

1000Base-ZX SFP transceivers

ˆ

10Gbps, 10GBase-SR/LR fiber optic transceivers

ˆ

10Gbps AT-SP10TW direct connect twinax cables with SFP+
transceiver-style connectors

You may use the transceivers to connect switches to other network
devices over large distances, build high-speed backbone networks
between network devices, or connect high-speed devices, such as
servers, to your network.

The switches support a variety of short and long distance SFP and SFP+
modules. For a list of supported SFP modules, contact your Allied Telesis
representative or visit our web site.

Note

SFP+ slots 51 and 52 are initially configured as stacking slots for the
VCStack feature. If you intend to use the switch as a stand-alone
unit, you must disable the VCStack feature before using the slots
with standard SFP or SFP+ transceivers. See Chapter 5,
“Configuring the Switch for Stand-alone Operations” on page 77 fo
