Because there are thousands of manufacturers and millions of model variations, it isn’t feasible for Alta Labs
to purchase and test every SFP, SFP+, and DAC type available.
We must rely on the community to report compatibility.
This platform collects real-world compatibility reports submitted by our users. Each entry helps Alta
Labs and the wider community identify which SFPs, SFP+, and DACs are fully compatible, partially
compatible, or incompatible with Alta devices.
Users fill out a form to report compatibility with an SFP, SFP+, or DAC. Take care to match the make
and model number exactly as printed on the module.
Your report is sent to Alta Labs for review.
After review, Alta Labs approves the submission and adds it to our compatibility database.
Each entry starts with a score of 50 and the scale is 0-100, so 50 is neutral. We automatically add or subtract (depending on the report) 1 when the submission is approved.
If you select “Works w/ Configuration Change” or “Doesn't Work” and you
provide your contact information, we may reach out for more details.
We will not SPAM you. Your email address is encrypted before being stored in the database.
Thank you for helping improve interoperability across the Alta
ecosystem!
