XSM4328FV and ARUBA DAC JL488A

For M4350-24F4V Fully Managed Switch models (XSM4328FV), I need to connect the 4 SFP28 ports to HP servers with Intel SFP28 cards and 3-meter ARUBA DAC cables, model JL488A. Therefore, I need you to confirm the compatibility of the XSM4328FV with ARUBA DAC JL488A cables.

Thanks

  • Yes, they're compatible. The switch's 4 SFP28 ports support 25G Ethernet with standard passive DACs like the JL488A (25G SFP28-to-SFP28, up to 3m). Just plug 'em in, set ports to 25G speed if needed via the UI, and you're good—no special config required for basic link-up. Test a link first to confirm no quirks.

    If issues pop (rare with standards-compliant gear), grab NETGEAR's transceiver guide or hit their support. Easy win!
