BIG-IP to Cisco via 10Gb SFP+ Direct Attach Copper

Hi,

 

Anybody using Cisco DAC 10G transceiver/copper cables (TwinAx) to connect from a Cisco switch to a BIG-IP?

 

Can't seem to find an answer, suspect it is not supported which is always an issue for DACs between vendors.

 

Cheers

  • Although this topic is already some years old, I hope someone can provide me the latest status for this issue.
    We are currently also facing this issue with a i2600. Tmsh list net interface displayes "Unsupported Optic detected" and interface status for 5.0 and 6.0 is DOWN.
    If I check all above comments it seems it's working for some of you and for others not.
    I also tried to verify if there is any possibility to disable the vendor-check, but I can't find anything useful.
    And more useful information would be very helpful!
    Thank you!

    Regards Stefan 🙂
