HI All, I just want to ask if my router support 10G, model: CCR1036-12G-4S Regards, Alex [core router]

we have so many attach dog in this forum and OPENAI. show respect. if you have a problem about my thread ask miktrotik to remove mis-leading information about that router. end of the story and get some manner.

But human easily spots the difference between [image] pe1chl: CCR1036-8G-2S+ [image] Nanflexal: CCR1036-12G-4S 8G vs 12G - whatever it means 2S+ vs 4S - whatever it also means however I agree that the length of both models' code is the same: 14 characters :slight_smile:

Well, it isn’t mis-information, it is just unclear. Those icons at the top of the page are like a quick summary of all the nonstandard features that model has, and the SFP icon with SFP/SFP+ just means “this router has SFP or SFP+ ports or both”. Further down it is detailed what it really has. Th…

[image] Nanflexal: mis-leading information about that router. end of the story and get some manner. Thank you, it's always good to listen to the experienced man and be able to draw from his well of wisdom. The good manner or habit could be to read specification of possesed device in advance …

But the question at hand is - I believe - to be split into two different ones: would a s SFP+ (10 Gb) module work in a SFP (1 Gb) cage? will it work at 10 Gb speed or ONLY at 1 Gb speed (if supported by the 10 Gb module)?

:man_facepalming: Trust professionals, they say... @jaclaz , your two points are kind of a "lawyer's perspective" - the answer from Getic may be formally correct if the 12G-4S device indeed accepts 10G modules, even though they cannot actually operate on 10G speed, but common sense says that's not …

[image] sindy: So if someone purchased the 12G-4S based on this response, they'd definitely have grounds for a return. Assume that Getic should be blamed? CCR1036-12G-4S specs states: Fiber SFP DDMI: Yes SFP ports: 4 No mention of SFP+ so it implies no way to work at 10Gb even if you c…

It is probably outside their return policy anyway. It seems this model was no longer distributed after March 2024 and all shops that still list it are either out of stock or have those shops not properly uptodate. Getic no longer lists it, only the later CCR1036-8G-2S+ model that was distributed u…

Well, the official Mikrotik documentation does provide a list of 10 Gb modules "compatible" with this device ( in practice all BUT the S+RJ10) MikroTik wired interface compatibility - RouterOS - MikroTik Documentation which can be ambiguous, without a note lik…

[image] BartoszP: Assume that Getic should be blamed? Blamed... for what? It was all hypothetical, "if someone purchased the device based on this response". Implicitly meaning "from them" of course. So in such hypothetical situation yes, I would definitely "blame" them in misleading me into p…

Yes, that DAC can work at 10 Gb.
Yes, that DAC can work at 1 Gb.
No, that DAC won't work at 10 Gb on your switch, because the switch cage cannot.
