Aruba JL685A SFP+ port

[AlexVolynko]

I want to buy an Aruba JL686A switch with SFP+ ports, but currently I have a J9660A with SFP ports. Can I connect an SFP transceiver to the SFP + port on the JL686A switch?

Hello,

Can you please share the existing SFP product number 'JXXXX'?

Else sharing below quickspecs link for  JL686A so you can check exisiting SFP is comaptible with JL686A or not?

I am using third party transceivers such as Dlink DEM-310GT. According to Aruba spec, I found it has 1/10G SFP/SFP+ ports. But I had no experience of setting up an SFP + port with an SFP transceiver. Will this combination work?

Hello Alex,

"I am using third party transceivers such as Dlink DEM-310GT"

It means that you are using an unsupported SFP/SFP+ Transceiver on your current switch model (unsupported = NOT original HPE/Aruba and also not an SKU option supported by your switch series/model).

Look for switch QuickSpecs/Datasheet to understand what SKU Options are there for a 1000BaseLX (LC Long Range - up to 10 km - SFP Transceiver for Single Mode fiber optic cabling).
