Some time ago I have purchased a cisco catalyst switch (I dont remember the exact model) ,that has regular twisted pair Ethernet and two SFP ports. All this time I have been using the twisted pair Ethernet ones, but I would like to also utilize the SFP ports to gain some speed networking with my NAS storage. The trouble is I dont know anything about SFP transceivers. What do those support? Fiber maybe? What card will I need to purchase to connect to my servers? What SFP’s and cable? Please give me an example setup on how to utilize the ports.
Thanks!
Figure out the model of the switch and go read the documentation.
