I'm having difficulty finding an affordable compatible optical 10Gbps SFP+ for Brocade 6740T switch- The switch comes with 4x 40Gbps ports which can be used either with an adapter or a breakout cable to get 4x SFP+

In my case I want to connect this transceiver to a 10Gbps cross-connect fiber - I found on eBay HP 655902-001 655874-B21 HP MELLANOX QSFP/SFP ADAPTER - which is just a converter - but not sure if it will work if I connect just a regular cisco SFP-10G-SR 10GBASE-SR or equivalent



I'm thinking one of these in the screenshot will be - not sure which one to be used for 10Gbps cross connect at a datacenter - most common / affordable

Any help would be appreciated

Your screenshot is all 40 gig parts. You need a Brocade coded 10G SFP+ probably LR (single mode 1310nm) if at a datacenter, I'd suggest buying from fs.com. Then that would likely work with the adaptor you list.

Hi, SFP+ is a 10Gbps - I want to utilize the 40G QSFP port to convert to fiber 10G SFP+
