Are SFP style transceivers like those used in a Dell 3448P switch compatible with GBIC style transceivers like those used in a Cisco 6500 SUP2? I have two single mode fiber optic cable strands that are terminated in SC style connectors. Assuming I have the correct fiber optic patch cables, can I connect a Dell 3448P with a 1000BASE-LX transceiver into a Cisco 6500 with a GBIC? |

My understanding of your situation is you have Cisco switch with SC GBICS (assuming they are single mode) and Dell switch with SFC connector on other end. You are trying to connect these 2 switches together. Yes you can connect these 2 switched together without any issue. All you need is a SC-LC patch cable and make sure that both switches have single mode interfaces on them. Different kind of connectors are not an issue. As long as they are both single mode and use same wavelegnth you would be Ok. |
