The modules that you may connect to the S5040A Appliance are:
• SFP — Small Form-Factor Pluggable modules. The three categories are:
• SFP — supports 100 Mbps to 4 Gbps per lane
• SFP+ — supports up to 10 Gbps per lane
• SFP28 — supports up to 25 Gbps per lane
• QSFP — Quad Small Form-Factor Pluggable modules. The three
categories are:
• QSFP — supports up to 4 Gbps (4 lanes x 1 Gbps per lane)
• QSFP+ — supports up to 40 Gbps (4 lanes x 10 Gbps per lane)
• QSFP28 — supports up to 100 Gbps (4 lanes x 25 Gbps per lane)
Note that the S5040A Appliance has four QSFP28 ports. You may plug in
QSFP modules without adapters.
Also, SFP28 modules can be used with QSFP28 to SFP28 adapters.
Similarly, SFP+ modules can be used with QSFP+ to SFP+ adapters.
