Interesting!

Would those modules work with any other enterprise grade switches, like HP 2920? I have a few legacy switches that would beg to have more 10G copper uplinks and there are no SFP+ modules on the market by HP.

I don't know about HP but they work in Ubiquiti switches.

Anyone know if these will work in those cheap Aruba S2500 switches?

The only 10GB for the 2920 is the 2-port rear module you can pickup. HPE is fairly particular on the module coding, unfortunately. If you do get it to work, let me know .....we've got a hundred or so of them in the field.

I saw on reddit the UBT based modules work. The Aruba MAS gear has been fairly liberal on the module acceptance so I wouldn't be surprised if it would work.

I have ordered one, after reading that it works with ConnectX-2, so I can experiment with it some more. I will let you know, it should be here next week.

This is unobtainium. I bought two, both returned, both ver. 1. Two different vendors, two different marketplaces! Can someone point me to a certain source of this in rev. 2.18?
