    Aruba 3810M (JL076A) + Aruba SFP+ module (JL083A) + third-party SFP+ transceiver compatibility

    I just bought this Aruba gear off eBay. Quite happy with the switch so far, but the SFP+ module seems fussy. The module's green LED is on, and it says it's fine: aruba-switch# show module Status and Counters - Module Information Chassis: 3810M-40G-8SR-PoE+-1-slot JL076A Serial...

    Cheap, low-profile x710-da4 on AliExpress - experiences?

    There are a few options for cheap-ish x710-da4 quad SFP+ low-profile cards on Ali Express. They all look the same. Here is one. The x710 appears appealing as it allows for the CPU to enter the lower power modes. (ASPM) Anyone tried one of these cheap cards in one of the Lenovo tinymicrominis...

    X710 alternative to AOC-STGN-I2S (half height, and SHORT)?

    Hi! I and many others like the Supermicro AOC-STGN-I2S X520 NIC for building in SFF or TMM cases. It’s Intel 82599ES based so very well supported and solid. The size is great. I’ve done a lot of searching to find a X710 or similar equivalent card that is dual SFP+, half height and SHORT...

    Hasivo S1300WP-8XGT-4S+ now available on AliExpress

    I was in need for a switch that could support a TP-Link EAP783 and plenty of other nBaseT as well as SFP+ devices with a SFP+ LAG/SFP28 uplink to avoid bottlenecking my 25G internet too much. I didn't want to cascade switches or buy dodgy 10G POE injectors and after many hours of digging I found...

    Any experience with Hasivo F1100W-4XS-4XGT (L3 switch) - 4x SFP+ ports and 4x 10GBase-T ports

    Seems like a really great deal on Aliexpress at the moment. Patrick went over a few 2.5Gb switches a few times so thid likely would be of the same quality? I'm assuming the Webui or functionality is nothing crazy. Just like with the other Realtek based switches. Just mostly care about...

    SFP+ PCIe NIC that supports bidirectional transceivers?

    I have these transceivers from FS.com and I want to use them in an ICX 6610. However, they're not detected. Apparently earlier Brocade switches didn't support BiDi modules. So I wanted to modify the EEPROM to show up as a duplex transceiver. I have a Banana Pi R4 board with SFP+ cages. However...

    Dell Mellanox ConnectX-5 MCX512F-ACAT transceiver compatibility

    I picked up a pair of Dell-branded Mellanox ConnectX-5 MCX512F-ACAT dual-SFP28 NICs on eBay and have been trying out different combinations of transceivers I have on hand. I'm using Linux 6.10 (mlx5_core kernel module) and systemd-nspawn to claim one of the ports so that I can run, e.g., iperf...

    Dedicated 2.5GBASE-T SFP+ transceivers that run cooler than 10GBASE-T transceivers?

    My main switch (MikroTik CRS309-1G-8S+IN) is running very hot with 3 10GBASE-T SFP+ transceivers (even spaced in non-agacent ports). I did the popular fan mod but it was loud and only kept the closest port cool. I have a 10GBASE-T NAS, a 2.5GBASE-T WiFi Router (Multiple VLANS--untagged so it...

    SFP+/SFP28 PCIe Cards in 2023

    I've been searching around for a few days but haven't really come to a satisfying conclusion as to which is a good direction to go. I'm looking for a PCIe card to connect my QNAP TVS-h874X to a Unifi USW-Enterprise-8-PoE. The QNAP came with a dual-port 10GBASE-T card, but the switch only has...
