Carl I am pretty sure that is the same cable I used to test a Tbit to radio connection and I didn't have any issues. Also I know they work in the  CRS305-1G-4S+IN.

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?
