This depends on which SFP+ ports are used. The following table shows what kind of modules are supported in which
See [[List of supported transceiver modules]] for details.

All SFP+ ports support original Intel modules (Intel product code
E10GSFPSR for short range and E10GSFPLR for long range). In addition
the use of passive direct attached cables is possible. It is recommended
to use Intel DAC (product code XDACBL1M, XDACBL3M or XDACBL5M).
Intel branded modules and modules that have been programmed to identify
themselves as original Intel modules can be used at customers risk without
warranty.
 
The usage of Intel modules is mandatory for the built-in SFP+ ports. These
restrictions do not apply to the additional network extension cards
(2 port and 4 port SFP+, high precision GPS card, etc.) that are available for
the Allegro Network Multimeter 1000 and 3000 series. These ports accept
generic modules from a wide range of vendors.
 
Since autonegotiation is often not available on 1G/10G SPF+ interfaces, it
may be necessary to manually set the correct speed in the `Interface Stats`
section of the user interface.
