We'd been buying Mikrotik 'branded' ones in order to avoid just the sort
of issues we've been having with this last batch. We can see changes to
the casing, fins, and even the circuit board in this last batch and very
few scenarios work properly. Short distance CCR to CCR works ok,
anything else has been giving us serious issues. Definitely looking
into alternatives at this point.

Don’t buy those.
Get same/better units from fiberstore.com.
In quantity I have a direct company in china I order from also, but you
must wire transfer funds.

Subject: [AFMUG] Issues with newest batch of Mikrotik SFPs S-53LC20D
and S-35LC20D?
I'm curious if anyone has ordered any newer batches of these products.
This is the second change we've seen in the case of the SFP. All the
units from then newest batch seem to have trouble linking to the FTC
Media Converter or to 2011s, Cloud Core products seem to link together
just fine over shorter distances.
We're wondering if we just happened to get two 10-packs that have gone
bad or if anyone else has seen any issues with newer SFPs?
