I’ve got several CRS305-1G-4S+ in service.  Never had a problem with any of 
them.  It will definitely run off of the Cyber Power 48v UPS.  

 

 



 

I have no idea on the max wattage for an SFP+.  We could infer 2W per SFP+ 
based on this spec, but can’t say for sure whether a single port could exceed 
that.  I’d test it for you, but I don’t think I have any transceivers that use 
that much juice.

I'm not doing liquid cooling.  See the pics I posted above.  Just need to 
extend the SFP+ cage out of a Siklu radio.  The alternative is to add another 
little switch but that adds complexity to what is a simple design.  PON hanging 
off a Siklu for a small apartment building.  Only thing active is the Siklu and 
the "SFP".  One cyber power 48V battery backup to power the silku.  If you add 
a switch, how are you powering it, where is it mounted, etc.  

 

On the note of adding a switch.  Has anyone used the CRS305-1G-4S+IN?  Anyone 
have a contact at Mikrotiik who could find out the SFP+ port's power budget?

I’m curious what Carl Peterson is doing too.  

The description on the linked item says it’s so you can put your electronics 
into immersed liquid cooling without exposing your optics to the liquid.  
Pretty esoteric stuff.

 

Not understanding the use case, but assuming there’s a reason you can’t extend 
the fiber a few feet with a jumper and mating sleeve, then how about use a DAC 
to reach another switch?

I am curious what the application is that a longer cable would not address? I 
have never heard of such a device.

I have an application where I need to extend a SFP+ cage a foot or two but need 
3.5W peak and 2.7W continuous power.  The existing device supports the power 
but the only SFP+ cage extender I can find is only rated at 2.5W.  Can you 
passively just extend the cage pins or is this something that requires 
electronics?  Anyone know of a higher power SFP extension cable?
