R0X41A, R0X42A, R0X43A

10.04.1000

R0X39A/R0X40A (revision A) are no longer supported for use in the 6400 series

JL563A can be used in all SFP⁠+ , SFP28, or SFP56 ports; no quantity limit.

JL563A does not support 1G operation; only 10G.

Aruba 8320 48p 10G SFP/SFP⁠+ and 6p 40G QSFP⁠+ Switch JL479A 10.01.0011 JL563A does not support 1G operation; only 10G. It is only supported in ports 1 – 12. A maximum of 12 JL563A transceivers can be used in a switch.
Aruba 8325 48Y8C JL624A , JL625A 10.03.0030

JL563A does not support 1G operation; only 10G.

A maximum of 12 JL563A transceivers can be used in a switch.

It is only supported in the top two rows, ports 1 - 17. It is disallowed in ports 3, 6, 9, 12, and 15. Use in any other port generates an incompatible interface error (meaning the port does not support the use of this transceiver; move to another port.

The 8325 requires configuration of "interface groups" to enable use of 1G or 10G transceivers or DACs in the SFP28 ports (default is to use 25G transceivers / DACs). See the Installation Guide for details.
