What brand/model switch is it?

<div>
It's a dell powerconnect 8132f

<div>
I also got a 40Gbe QSFP+ module. &nbsp;I think what I'm missing is a transceiver that plugs into this to make any use of this cable? Can I use these for stacking?

Did you order any SFP's or Transceivers?<br />
<br />
Did you order the cable, or did it just come with it?<br />

You can use the 40Gbe QSFP+ module for stacking, but I'm fairly sure &nbsp;you still need to get a transceiver.

I didn't order either.<br />

Cable just came with the switches.<br />

I believe what I need is a 40GBASE-SR4 transceiver if I want to stack these with this cable?

Hi,<br />
<br />
I recently got two new switches that are spf+. &nbsp;It came with two fiber cables, though I'm not actually sure how to install them. &nbsp;I didn't get a transceiver with them and the plug looks different to usual fiber cable.<br />
<br />
I've uploaded a two pictures of them.<br />

Hi,

I recently got two new switches that are spf+.  It came with two fiber cables, though I'm not actually sure how to install them.  I didn't get a transceiver with them and the plug looks different to usual fiber cable.

I've uploaded a two pictures of them.

Fiber Cable for switch...

A switch is a device that filters and forwards packets of data between LAN segments. Switches operate at the data link layer or the network layer of the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) Reference Model and therefore support any packet protocol. LANs that use switches to join segments are called switched LANs or, in the case of Ethernet networks, switched Ethernet LANs. A hub is a connection point for devices in a network. Hubs are commonly used to connect segments of a LAN. A hub contains multiple ports; when a packet arrives at one port, it is copied to the other ports so that all segments of the LAN can see all packets.

Switches / Hubs

Networking is the process of connecting computing devices, peripherals and terminals together through a system that uses wiring, cabling or radio waves that enable their users to communicate, share information and interact over distances. Often associated are issues regarding operating systems, hardware and equipment, cloud and virtual networking, protocols, architecture, storage and management.

Networking

Networking hardware includes the physical devices facilitating the use of a computer network. Typically, networking hardware includes gateways, routers, network bridges, modems, wireless access points, networking cables, line drivers, switches, hubs, and repeaters. But it also includes hybrid network devices such as multilayer switches, protocol converters, bridge routers, proxy servers, firewalls, network address translators, multiplexers, network interface controllers, wireless network interface controllers, ISDN terminal adapters and other related hardware.
