  Ghetto San pt3 – XFP transceivers.

  Posted by Marcus Lyall on August 18, 2012 at 4:11 pm

  Hi there,

  At the moment we have a setup that includes, amongst other things…

  A GB Labs Space file server with 2 x 10gb CX4 modules.
  An Edgecore switch with 2 x 10gb CX4 modules.
  A MacPro with a 10gb CX4 module.
  A Supermicro Unix file server with a CX4 module.

  A bunch of Macs connected via the Edgecore switch.

  At the moment, the Space and the Mac Pro are plugged into the 10gb sockets on the Edgecore, as are all our workstations.

  We found a Fujitsu XG2000 switch going cheap and bought it.
  (more as an experiment…) Naturally, it came without the transceivers.

  Wondering if the transceivers need to be specifically Fujitsu modules, or whether other ones will work. Doesn’t tell you in the manual, but the Fujitsu ones are not so easy to find.

  Any ideas?

  Many thanks..
