It seems like I may be in trouble here. &nbsp;The model of switch I have is the SLM2048, which has no listed supported SFP in this chart.<br />
<br />
What fiber SFP will work in this switch?<br />
<br />
Thank you,

What fiber SFP will work in this switch?

Thank you,

SLM2048 is listed on the second link.<br />
On the first one there is also SG200-50P - SLM2048PT-xx

Was able to determine the following:<br />
<br />
Upon checking in here the MGBLX1 &nbsp;is compatible with SLM2048PT, and yes it would work for both &nbsp;100 and 1000 Mpbs speeds. <br />

I am installing a 100Gb connection between a building and my data center over fiber. &nbsp;This will be a switch to switch connection.<br />
<br />
The switch at the building is a Cisco SG200-50P Model#:SLM2048PT-NA.<br />
<br />
The fiber connection is currently a 100Gb connection, but I have the option to increase that speed to 1000Gb over the telco carrier later on. &nbsp;<br />
<br />
The question I have is this:<br />
Can the MGBLX1 function at 100Gb for now, or is it ONLY a 1000Gb SFP module? &nbsp;Do I have to use the MFELX1 SFP module and then if I upgrade the speed later, have to buy the MGBLX1 SFP module?

Which SFP module for SG200-50P Model#: SLM2048PT-NA

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 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

Network design and methodology, also known as network architecture, is the design of a communication network. It is a framework for the specification of a network's physical components and their functional organization and configuration, its operational principles and procedures, as well as data formats used in its operation. In telecommunication, the specification of a network architecture may also include a detailed description of products and services delivered via a communications network, as well as detailed rate and billing structures under which services are compensated.

Network Architecture

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 software modules are interfaced with a framework implemented on the machine's operating system that implements the networking functionality of the operating system. The best known frameworks are the TCP/IP model and the OSI model. Systems typically do not use a single protocol to handle a transmission. Instead they use a set of cooperating protocols, sometimes called a protocol family or protocol suite.[9] Some of the best known protocol suites include: IPX/SPX, X.25, AX.25, AppleTalk and TCP/IP. Other protocols indirectly related to networking include the hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) and its related technologies, Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP), Domain Name Server (DNS) and other Internet protocols.
