It depends on the spec of the XFP module, as well as the cabling. The spec =
of both types of modules needs to match. I asked the OP to test B2B to elim=
inate the XFP as the problem.  If you have any suggestions, I'd be happy to=
 hear them.=20

t you are correct regarding an incompatibility issue between SFP+ and XFP.

Why do you believe that? The optical signals are the same for SFP+
and XFP.

We have lots of 10G SFP+ / XFP links in production. It just works...
