Hi cflatt,

 

Great then. Should we look at the (using multimode fiber) different SFP port and SFP module, maybe that's the problem.

 

 

Kind regards,

So currently what I'm trying to connect to is an RJ-5G-SX connector (data sheet here: https://cotsworks.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/944-00007-24_RJ-5G-SX.pdf) using those multimode fiber cables. Again when linking through the GS716TP SFP port/module this link works fine. But through the MS510TXM SFP+ port, i see no link on the Switch side however I do see link on the side of the RJ-5G-SX connector. Not sure if there's some compatibility problem I'm not seeing between the two.

 

Regards,

    Hi cflatt,

     

    Looks like it. Can you open a support ticket to report this and determine if this is a compatibility issue?
