Dell - Internal Use - Confidential
Was forced to get an Ascend Superpipe to work with a PM4 for one of our
customers ages ago. Two ISDN lines... as soon as the 4th channel was thrown
into multilink, it would drop the 3rd channel. >:O
Finally got it working after a lot of trial and error with s

My memory is somewhat rusty as it's been a while, but at Tellurian I'm pretty
positive we ran a DS3+ worth of lines from Sprint from 07860 so I'm not sure if
"by far" is totally accurate. ;) We terminated on a PM4 he
*nods* I may end up doing that. I was ordering new ones from China (6COM and
Gigalight) and they asked me if I needed any particular vendor coding. Thus far
people that have used all of the various pieces involved (Mikrotik, Dell,
generic Intel) said they should be fine with non-coded optics.
Thanks for this and several off-list responses. The consensus was that I was
safe.

Check on ebay for a SFP / SFP+ programmer. You can then buy cheap

They don't work with Intel SR optics (whatever it is that comes with
the X520-SR's). They do seem to work with generic Finisar 1GB optics.
Since the Dell branded FTLX8571D3BCL SR's seem to go for only $2
It is interesting where this conversation turned. But for history's sake...
NAC started on PM2e with Microcom's, and then USR Sportster. I remember USR
sending us PROM chips to change from 28.8 to 33.6. After that, PM3's. We were
early PM3 users, working with Megazone on an almost continuous bas
