XMG1915-18EP 10gb copper SFP+ shop
Hi,
I am really struggling to find a supplier of 10Gb SFP+ modules for the XMG1915-18EP switch. I have tried Mikrotik and 10G GTek 80m modules but I get weird ddmi errors stating things like infinite low rx and tx reading intermittently causing the link to flap up and down constantly. These modules even when relatively stable at 10Gb (seems to be with no real traffic flowing) don’t even show in the web interface or the cli as connected, even when the LED on the switch is lit blue.
can anyone point me to a retailer that can supply Zyxel 10Gb copper modules that are fully compatible?
cheers

I also completely forgot I also tried FS modules with the same result! Any pointers to fully compatible copper modules greatly appreciated!

Hi,
I can confirm the switch is super picky around SFP+ module compatibility and only works with the Zyxel SFP+ modules I have now purchased.
I also noted the the web interface only shows the link being connected at 10Gb even when the other side is connected to a 2.5Gb port.
so just buy the Zyxel SFP+ copper module to save yourself some pain as I have tested quite a few non-Zyxel SFP+ copper modules which all act weirdly in the same way!
