Johan had a customer question:

***********************

Hi all,

How many 1 Gig ports are suported on the Flex-10 module, we have 8 ports, can I put 8 times a 1Gb SFP in each of them, is this suported, product Bulletim doesn´t provide this detail.

You can put a 1Gb connection in a Flex-10 module, but it will complain that there’s no stacking links between the adjacent bays.  Best practices is to use only 7 for uplinks (regardless of speed).  FlexFabric modules on the other hand, only supports 1Gb on the four right most SFP+ ports.
