S5248F qsfp-dd support

I have two S5248F-ON switches and two S5448F-ON switches.

The S5248F-ON switches have QSFP28-DD ports, and the S5448F-ON switches have QSFP56-DD ports.

To establish VLT links, I used DAC-Q56DD-400G-0.5M cables on both pairs of switches.

I understand that DAC-Q56DD-400G-0.5M cables are intended for use with the S5448F-ON switches to achieve VLT links. However, I am curious if these same cables can be used with the QSFP28-DD ports on the S5248F-ON switches.

Will there be any implications in doing so?

Note below is how I am trying to setup,

s5248f ====VLT Links=====s5248f

qsfp28-dd ports ====(DAC-Q56DD-400G-0.5M cable)=====qsfp28-dd ports (Will this cable work s5248f switch pair? why?)

s5448f ====VLT Links=====s5448f (I know this will work as the cable is compatible)

qsfp56-dd ports ====(DAC-Q56DD-400G-0.5M cable)=====qsfp56-dd ports

Hi,

 

The DAC-Q56DD-400G-0.5M cable is Dell part number: W4JWV right?

 

W4JWV is not compatible with S5248F. 

 

If you need more information on what is the best cable for your S5248F, I may recommend to contact sales as they have a list of reference to check based on your requirement and enviroment.
