These days you can get cheap twinax 10G cables with SFP+ at the ends to connect two Cisco switches or two Procurves. Short distance only of course, but very cheap.
I would like to connect a Procurve 5406zl which has a SFP+ port to one of the 10Gbps ports on a Cisco 7600 RSP720-3CXL-10GE. Twinax ends in SFP+, the ports on the RSP720 are X2. Are there any adapters from X2 to SFP+? Also, twinax SFP+ are manufacturer-specific. Is it possible to get a twinax-cable with a Cisco-coded SFP+ at one end and a Procurve-coded SFP+ at the other? If a twinax-based solution isn't possible, what is the cheapest solution? /Benny _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
