Deco BE85 SPF+ port

2024-06-06 19:28:21

Model: Deco BE85

Hardware Version:

Firmware Version: 1.0.18

I have a BE85 configured in AP mode and using one of the 2.5g ports to wire the BE85 to an internal switch. The Deco is provided an IP via DHCP. Everything works correctly.

The same switch also has an 10g SPF+ port. I tried to simply disconnect the 2.5g wire and plugged new fiber between both SPF+ ports. Once rebooted the BE85 assumed the IP address of 192.168.1.1 rather then taking on a DHCP address. The networking appears in order as i can connect to 192.168.1.1 via a browser where the router web page would come up, instead i'm getting the BE85 login page. The APP cannot find the deco.

I turned off the BE85, disconnected the SPF+ connection and reconected the 2.5g ports and it booted correctly in AP mode with the it's correct DHCP provided address.

Can the BE85 be configured in AP mode with the SPF+ port providing connectivity to the internal network? Do i need to reconfigure the Deco with the APP by starting over the configuarion?

thanks for insight.

@ThePlant

Hi, Thanks for the feedback.

For the fiber cable between the SFP+ ports on the main Deco BE85 and the internal switch, is it the AOC cable or standard optic fiber with extra Fiber SFP+ modules?

By the way, may I know the model number of the internal network switch?

Is your network layout like:

Fiber ISP optic distribution box---Fiber gateway---(10G Ethernet)main Deco BE85--<fiber>--- Network Switch---other staffs

Wait for your reply and best regards.

@David-TP

It is a standard Fiber cable (OM4 LC LC DX) with identical tranceiver on each end. They are labled as Multi-Mode Duplex LC Gigabit 850nm 300m Fiber SFP Transceiver

The switch is an YuanLey YS25-0402.

My Deco85 is in AP mode

Fiber ISP optic distribution box---Fiber gateway - Proxrox/OPNSense(2.5g) - (2.5) network switch (10g) - BE85 in AP mode (10g)
