10GBase-T or SFP +?

Hello, we want to migrate our Data Center to 10G, and I'm dealing with the first problem: 10GBASE-T and SFP +. I understand that this decision will affect to the switches, servers and SAN (iscsi) and their interoperability. Right?

My first step is to allow 10 G switch, done it must support SFP + and 10GBASE-T?

Thank you

See the Intel Romley launch, Dell has launched 3 10GBase-T cards intel, it includes X 540 NIC, LOM and NAC.

These should be available soon through Dell and all other providers.

  • With the help of SFP + 10GBase-SR on single mode

    Hello, I have a two IDF connected with a 9/125 singlemode fiber backbone. I want to put a PowerConnect 5548 on each IDF and connect them.

    I have two SFP + 10GBase - SR Tranceivers. Can I use them on this single connection? Or I have to use SFP + 10GBase - LR?

    I see only that the part number indicated as multimode.

  • 62xx to 62xx via SFP + 10GBase-LR

    Hello world

    a battery consists of two 6224P, I use two FC SFP + modules (couldn't dig up D/PN, wink will be soon attached)

    g23 mastery (but any other SFP +) via FC to third 6224P

    now I see that the link is there, at least both ends indicate link is there and no problems reported, yet...

    I can't start with, both ends ping each other

    I like to leave the third switch in stand-alone mode, just a CF link between it and the battery

    Why they can't see each other? needs to check/make sure first?

    Thank you very much.

    You want to switch master/general switchport mode implemented on ports for connection of the battery and the stand alone. On the PowerConnect 62xx switches, you must use general mode if you want to allow traffic from management on the switch on the PVID.  If you use the Trunk mode, you will not have the default VLAN on these ports.  The ports will only allow labeled traffic.

    example of

    Console # configure

    Console (config) # interface ethernet e11

    mode console # switchport general

    Console # switchport General allowed vlan add 100 tag

    Console # switchport General allowed vlan add 200 unidentified

    Console (config-if-1/g1) #switchport pvid General 1

    Console # end

    This suppose you are wanting to connect switches only to layer 2 and layer 3 (routing).  If you route and want to switch to communicate through Layer 3 you will need a range of IP addresses and isolated VLAN. Then, set connection ports between the devices as a switchport access with the specified VIRTUAL local network.

  • The Cisco C-460 M2 10Gbase-T ports - they can work 1 Gbit/s?

    Hello

    I work with a client with a Cisco C - 460 M2 with VMware ESXi 5.0u1 scheduled for installation.  This server has two ports of 10Gbase-T LOM. They can run at 1 Gbps?  I ask b/c, the customer doesn't have a switch in their DC 10 Gbps, and we would like to launch 4x1Gbps (LOM two 1 Gbit/s, as well as the LOM two 10 Gbps @ 1 Gbps).

    In my view, that this map is based on the Broadcom 57711.  Most of the information I've seen on this map use SFP +, not 10Gbase-T, so it is unclear if it is backwards compatible.

  • Trouble connecting Netgear XS748T to Ubiquiti UniFi US-48-750W via Port SFP +.

    We bought a new switch Netgear XS748T and try connecting to our existing network which consists of several switches of Ubiquiti UniFi US-48-750W, and we try to connect using the SFP + 10 GB ports on the two switches. We have a Direct Link SFP + SFP + DAC, passive, 1 m, cable AWG30, we bought at Amazon / 10Gtek and when we try to use this cable between the Ubiquiti switch and the Netgear we get no link activity.

    However if we use the same cable between two of Ubiquiti switches it lights immediately and works very well, the same is true if we use the same SFP + cable between the switch Netgear XS748T and a XS728T that we must also. Its almost as if the switches detect the same manufacturer at the other end and right link up but when its manufacturer another pass on the other end, it does nothing.

    It is very aggravating, and Im going to be obliged to return the new Netgear switches. Can someone make a suggestion or confirm if they should or may not work? Everything simply connecting switches together using a cable of copper works very well but since our current switches don't support 1 GB via copper it provides not enough bandwidth for our use so we really need the port SFP + 10 GB to give us the uplink.

    Here is a link to the modules SFP + cable, we bought:

    https://www.Amazon.com/DP/B01LSGGUOY/ref=twister_B01M0ER4M0?_encoding=UTF8&PSC=1

    It seems that I solved the problem myself. I bought a set of:
    10Gtek for Cisco SFP - 10 G - LR, 10 Gb/s Transceiver SFP + module 1310nm 10km

    And the LR version worked instantly. I honestly don't know what's the difference between a SFP + SR module and a module LR SFP +, but for some reason any LR module has allowed these two switches to connect.

    Here are links to the modules and the cable used in case anyone needs a solution to this:

  • Should I more SFP + ports host if I add another tray of disk PS6210X

    Hi all

    We have a cluster of Hyper V of Server 2012 R2 4 nodes with each host with 2 10GbE SFP + dedicated to iSCSI traffic. We need to increase the capacity of the San and our supplier has quoted another shelf but said that we need another 2 10GbE SFP + ports in each of our guests. Is this correct?

    I was under the impression that all our guests are already "hooked" in the iSCSI with MPIO active tissue and must therefore not more physical iSCSI connections.

    If we opt to not install the additional iSCSI NIC will we lose performance?

    Thank you very much

    Gary

    Probably not. In a virt. environment, you have a random i/o with smaler blocksizes which means less bandwidth. If you have dedicated 2x10GbE you need a couple of members PS do deliver IOPS and fill this huge pipe.

    I suggest that you install SANHQ when its not already there and check the width of band and transferrates you already have.

    To compare I have 10 members of PS in 2 pools with 11 hosts (each of them have 2x10GbE just for iSCSI) and the sending of PS group around 400 MB/s and up to 1000 MB/s during the backup.

    I need an IOmeter and 100% with blocksie 256 KB sequential read workload to fill the pipes 2 x 10 a server.

  • 10 Gbps sfp + question of Dell X 1052

    Hey,.

    I am interested in buying a dell x 1052 switch but I have a few questions about its features.

    1. can I I aggregate the sfp ports + this switch? Basically, I want to lacp 2 sfp ports + 10 Gbit/s and then connect the ports on my server that has a double card nic intel 10 Gbps. I would use a Twinaxial cable so that the server and the switch have a link between the two 20gbps. so is this possible?

    2. can I connect port sfp + 10 Gbit/s directly to my computer that has a network of 10 Gbit/s Intel card?

    Thanks for the help

    After taking a glance at one of the switches in our lab, I can confirm that the SFP + 10 GB ports can be configured in a GAP between them. Here's an example of how ports appear in the running configuration once being configured to aggregate links.
