&nbsp;Hi,
&nbsp;
No, a 10G SFP+ DAC cable will NOT work when inserted into an 1G SFP port, it won't be recognized and there is no way to establish a link at 1Gbps using it.
&nbsp;
Either the 1G SFP ports on both of your switches receive a 1G SFP transceiver such as our AGM731F, or a MSA-compliant 1G DAC cable. I don't think this is common, and you might have trouble finding any. I would rather insert a 1000BASE-T RJ45 SFP transceiver such as our AGM734 in both switches' SFP port, and use CAT5E or better cable between the two.&nbsp;

Hello, my response is valid for any switch equipped with 1G SFP ports - the 10G SFP+ modules (fiber transceivers) or DAC (cables) can't be recognized by the 1000BASE-X SFP PHY or port, no link possible.

@vortexqc,&nbsp;The SFP modules that are compatible to both&nbsp;GSM7248V2 and a GS728TPP are the AGM731F and AGM732F.&nbsp; As reference, kindly check the last page of their respective data sheets below:&nbsp;GSM7248v2 Data Sheet&nbsp;GS728TPP Data Sheet&nbsp;Kindly check below for more information about the AGM731F and AGM732F:&nbsp;&nbsp;If ever your concern has been addressed or&nbsp; resolved, I&nbsp;encourage you to mark the appropriate reply as the “Accepted Solution” so others can be confident in benefiting from the solution.

ok so the AGM731F will do the job the 2 switch a on the same rack, and for the fiber cable who goes in this adaptoris there a netgear product number for this cable ? i only need 6 feet or less

schumaku · Answer

As both end SFP are plain SFP (no SFP+ on one end), you might have the possibility to deploy a simple an inexpensive SFP-DAC, like an AXC761 (1 m / three feet) or AXC763 (3 m/ ten feet).

Can DaneA validate this for thee two switch models/model lines please?
