RJ-45 Cat 5e cable is needed for connecting this transceiver. The max link length specified is 100m.
3
10GBase-T transceiver limited support:
-only supported in ports 1-2, 4-5, 7-8, 10-11, 13-14, 16-17. Use in any other port generates an “Incompatible
interface” error.
-maximum twelve 10GBase-T transceivers (both interface-groups 1 & 2 must be set for 10G operation).
4
RJ-45 shielded Cat 6A cable is needed for connecting up this transceiver. The max link length specified is 30m.
5
CAT6A F/FTP, S/FTP, SF/FTP highly recommended in noisy environments. Refer to Aruba
Support_Advisory_JL563A_10GBaseT_APSC-RS20180403-01 for more information.
6
The Lucent Connector (LC) is a small form factor fiber optic connector.
7
The Multifiber Push On (MPO) connector is a 12-fiber optical connector.
