I'm just now getting my feet wet in the networking side of things... I'd like to add a couple more physical interfaces to my C6100 nodes. Currently I'm looking at:

Dell Dual-Port 10GbE SFP Mezzanine Card with Riser C6100 C6220 X53DF

My PCIe slots are occupied with 4Gbps FC cards (small SAN lab) so PCIe network cards are out of the question.

Can I run copper SFPs in the X53DF cards to get them cabled to my current gigabit ethernet switches? If so, can someone point me to SFPs that would be ideal?

Thanks!
