Does the GS748T supports SFP+ 10GB modules?
Hello
Does switch GS748T supports SFP+ 10GB modules?
We found some info, but we want to make sure before we buy anything.
- Fits into SFP+ interfaces of M4200, M4300, M5300, M6100, M7100 and M7300 Managed Switches
- Fits into SFP+ interfaces of select Smart Managed Pro and Smart Managed Plus Switches
Kind regards
Hi, thank you for your message
No, SFP+ modules won't work because the GS748T has SFP ports, not SFP+ ports. As such, the GS748T can only connect 1G SFP modules, not 10G SFP+ modules.
I hope his helps,
Regards

Ok, thanks for the quick reply!
GS748T is very vague - there exist many different variants and versions. However, to my knowledge, all the standlone GS748T(v1..v5 or -100xxx ... -500xxx) come with SFP Gigabit ports only, eg. based on the GS716Tv3, GS724Tv4 and GS748Tv5 Data Sheet .
If you are in the market for a similar switch to the GS748T models, have an eye on the GC752X for example - two dedicated SFP+, two dedicated SFP. While it's very aggressively priced, be aware the warranty terms (5 years only when I have it right) are different from the Smart Managed Pro models.- CE2019Aspirant
Thanks for the reply.
I'm new to the Netgear switches models and series :-) . We are looking for something simular to 48x 1GB and SFP / SFP+ for uplink.
Apart from GS752X can you suggest other models which can meet our needs? Presumably i have to look in higher ranges such as the M4200 and M4300 series?
Kind regards
