Can this module be used in Catalyst 9200L switches? No. The "L" models (e.g., C9200L-24P-4G) have fixed uplinks. This module is only compatible with the modular C9200 series (e.g., C9200-24P, C9200-48T). Q2. Do I need to reboot the switch to install this module? No. The C9200-NM-2Y is hot-swappable, meaning it can be inserted or removed while the switch is powered on without interrupting system operation. Q3. Does this module support 10G SFP+ optics? Yes. Each port on the C9200-NM-2Y is backward compatible with 10G SFP+ and 1G SFP transceivers, providing great flexibility for mixed-speed environments. Q4. Can I use both ports simultaneously for a 50G uplink? Yes. You can configure the two ports in an EtherChannel (Link Aggregation) to provide a combined logical bandwidth of 50 Gbps to a core or distribution switch. Q5. Are the SFP28 transceivers included with the module? No. Transceivers (optics) and cables (DAC/AOC) must be purchased separately based on your distance and media requirements (e.g., SFP-25G-SR-S).
