SFP-10G-T-X on Meraki MX WAN port ?

Do anyone know, or have tried, to use SFP-10G-T-X or similar (non-Cisco SFP+ module) on the MXs with 10G WAN ports ?

 

I was just wondering if it was possible, and if anyone are actually using it in production.

Beware that the T-X is a high power slurping SFP.
Even on Nexus switches you need to lose another port to be able to run these.

So I would be very pessimistic about this.
If you can afford to test one, go for it 😉

I've used Fortinet SFPs before and they worked without any problems.

I am not a Cisco Meraki employee. My suggestions are based on documentation of Meraki best practices and day-to-day experience.
