Hi,
Just started configuring some new 2530-48G (J9281B) switches and ran into the following problem.
Together with the switches we ordered a few SFP+ direct attach cables (J9775A) as they were listed as an accessory.
When the interfaces refused to come up, I looked at the logs and saw the following entries:
W 01/01/90 00:00:19 00536 FFI: port 49 Transceiver type not supported in this
port.
W 01/01/90 00:00:19 00536 FFI: port 50 Transceiver type not supported in this
port.
As expected the following command doesn't return anything:
switch1# show tech transceivers
transceivers
Transceiver Technical Information:
Port # | Type | Prod # | Serial # | Part #
-------+-----------+------------+------------------+----------
=== The command has completed successfully. ===
How come these cables don't work, when HP lists these as compatible on the product page of the switch?
The cable is listed on the following page, under the tab services and options.

I haven't upgraded the firmware yet, as it should work regardless of version.
