OK, enough people have pointed it out :-). Clearly I was wrong about the MX 2K family, I missed the SFP+ MIC completely. That is good to know. However, the MX 10k family still only shows as being compatible with two QSFP cards. And yes, you can get a QSFP-SFP+ breakout cable, but those don't let you use SFP+ CWDM/DWDM transceivers. -Adam Adam Thompson Consultant, Infrastructure Services MERLIN 100 - 135 Innovation Drive Winnipeg, MB, R3T 6A8 (204) 977-6824 or 1-800-430-6404 (MB only) athompson@merlin.mb.ca www.merlin.mb.ca
