The 2-port 10 Gbps SPF+ uplink module can replace the 2-port XFP module in the fixed slot 3. Port
mapping is the same as for the 2x10 XFP with slot 3 and port 1 or 2, for example, 1/3/1 and 1/3/2.
Stacking is supported using the stack default-port command with the 1/3/1 and 1/3/2 options.
The module is named FCX-2SFPP 2-port 10G Module (2-SFP+) in configuration and output.
NOTE
Reload the device whenever you install or replace the module because the 2x10 SFP+ module is not
hot swappable.
