This is another good way to go, make sure you have a single mode handoff from the IX (you should, but double check this, orange fiber and yellow fiber are very different physically in size and generally not compatible. -Ben Cannon CEO 6x7 Networks & 6x7 Telecom, LLC ben () 6by7 net <mailto:ben () 6by7 net>

The MTP breakout requires separate optics, whereas the active breakout can plug directly into a device's SFP+ ports. Something like... https://www.fs.com/products/24422.html <https://www.fs.com/products/24422.html> And https://www.fs.com/products/41426.html <https://www.fs.com/products/41426.html> You'll also need to tell your device to break out it's 40 g into the component 10g channels. Then they'll each get a distinct port number. (Usually just a number appended to the parent port) -Matt On Wed, Jan 8, 2020, 12:10 Randy Bush <randy () psg com <mailto:randy () psg com>> wrote: i am not a fiber/sfp/... geek, so clue bat please on my left, i have a delta 9020SL running arcos, female 40g qsfp on my right, i have incoming 10g 1310nm single mode from the seattle internet exchange. it is currently into a redstone 10g sfp NAME VALUE --------------------------------- SwPort 1 Status PRESENT Valid True Vendor FiberStore Model SFP-10GLR-31 Serial-Number G1804021292 Type SFP Module-Type 10G_BASE_SX Media-Type FIBER Module-Capability F_10G Length 255 Length-Description which i am swapping out for the delta 9020 so i am look at something such as https://www.fs.com/products/30900.html <https://www.fs.com/products/30900.html> except i do not understand active/passive, AOC1M, etc thanks in advance randy
