I'd say any Cisco a compatible twinax cable will be fine. &nbsp;The data sheet is a bit confusing but it looks like only the fibre-optic modules should be Chelsio parts.

We're looking to get the copper twinax cables already packaged with the modules.

That's exactly the answer I've been looking for. Thanks!

Hi everyone, <br />
<br />
I have a <a href="https://store.pfsense.org/Chelsio-T520-SO-CR//" rel="ugc">Chelsio T520-SO-CR</a> 10 Gigabit network card, which I need to connect to a Cisco switch.<br />
<br />
The manufacturer suggest there are various SFP+ module/connector types and only some of them are compatible with that particular card. <a href="https://store.pfsense.org/10Gtek-CAB-10GSFP-P1M/" rel="ugc">This one</a> in partical has been proven be 100% compatible with both the Chelsio card and the Cisco switch but it is nearly impossible to source in the United Kingdom.<br />
<br />
Are there any other SFP+DAC cable combos I could buy in UK that will do the job?

Hi everyone, 

I have a Chelsio T520-SO-CR (https://store.pfsense.org/Chelsio-T520-SO-CR//) 10 Gigabit network card, which I need to connect to a Cisco switch.

The manufacturer suggest there are various SFP+ module/connector types and only some of them are compatible with that particular card. This one (https://store.pfsense.org/10Gtek-CAB-10GSFP-P1M/) in partical has been proven be 100% compatible with both the Chelsio card and the Cisco switch but it is nearly impossible to source in the United Kingdom.

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.

Networking Hardware-Other

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.
