Hi,

I recently purchased this switch: TP-LINK T2700G-28TQ JetStream 28-Port Gigabit Stackable L2+ Managed Switch

Not being an expert on ths subject, I only found out afterwards that in order to get it working with 10G, we need one of these:

https://www.tp-link.com/us/business-networking/accessory/txm431-lr/v3/

However, there appears to be only one place online that actually sells them - a seller in Germany who lists the product on Amazon.

Why is it so hard to get?

I purchased the product from the German seller, but haven't heard anything from them in almost 1 week, so it is doubtful the purchase will even be successful.

Surely there should be an easy way to purchase what we need from somewhere in the US?

Dear @Chuckee,

 

I recently purchased this switch: TP-LINK T2700G-28TQ JetStream 28-Port Gigabit Stackable L2+ Managed Switch

Not being an expert on ths subject, I only found out afterwards that in order to get it working with 10G, we need one of these:

https://www.tp-link.com/us/business-networking/accessory/txm431-lr/v3/

 

To assist you effectively, may I check your application scenario and network requirements? Do you have two of the T2700G-28TQ?

 

The TXM431-LR is a 10GBase-LR SFP+ Transceiver, you may need to know what it is and how to use before the purchase,

We can learn more about a product from the official website by checking the specifications.

https://www.tp-link.com/us/business-networking/accessory/txm431-lr/v3/#specifications

 

 

So the TXM431-LR supports 1310nm, 9/125um single-mode Fiber with LC/UPC port type, we need to connect it with Fiber cable.

With the TXM431-LR plugged into the SFP+ port on the T2700 switch, the SFP+ port is finally connected through a Fiber cable for 10Gbps connection.

 

Do you have a 10Gbps fiber connection at the other end of the connection?

@Fae I was advised by a qualified engineer that I needed to buy the part I mentioned.

The problem is that only one place in the entire world seems to stock it. Can you answer the question I asked about who actually sells the necessary components that are needed to make this switch work with 10G?

Dear @Chuckee,

 

Can you answer the question I asked about who actually sells the necessary components that are needed to make this switch work with 10G?

 

Sorry I have no idea about the sales information. Perhaps you may check it from other sales channels.

Here is the link for the TP-Link authorized reseller in the USA:
