VIPRION 2250 Blade - 40G Direct Attach Cable Support

Does anyone know if the 2250 supports a 40G Direct Attach Cable? It would be a lot cheaper. If they do do you know if it would work with a Cisco Branded DAC?

 

Thanks, Alex

    F5 would not support this, you are required to use F5 transceivers in the blade. We just used MTP-MTP fiber to the Cisco transeivers in the switch. It works and is supported by both vendors.
