Hello

I’m considering using the Mikrotik S+RJ10 module, which is SFP+ on one side and supports 5GBASE-T on the other. Before I make a purchase, I wanted to check if anyone here has experience using this module in non-Mikrotik switches.

Specifically, I’m planning to use it in a Zyxel XGS1930-28 switch while operating at 5GBASE-T. My goal is to establish a 5GBASE-T link to another switch a few floors above, ideally without needing an intermediary switch in between.

Has anyone tried this combination, or do you know if it should work? Any advice or potential compatibility issues I should be aware of?
