C9300L-24P-4X-M - what copper SFPS can i use

On the datasheet it doesn't even mentions a copper SFP-- can a GLC-TE be used -- ?

Have you checked this list?

thanks top one -- says the meraki copper one Not supported MA-SFP-1GB-TX but the cisco SFP check says the cisco equivalent switch can take a GLC-TE= so would think it should-- but need someone one tried it

robertjubb

think the top one is also says Click this LINK for a filtered list of all optics for C9300/C9300L/C9300X platforms - so i think they will work -- but any one tried on a new 9300 M model

It's not supported.

yes no mention -- but this-- send you to the 9300 section which says GLC-TE= is compatible-M models are the same hardware just running natively in Meraki mode.

Will it work? - Almost certainly yes.

Is it supported? - Based on the note you mentioned above; the GLC-TE is compatible. However if you are troubleshooting issues that indicate the SFP may be a problem, I could see Meraki support may request you to swap in a MA-SFP-1GB-TX to rule it out.
