Hi All

Next month I'll be purchasing the Netgear XS708T which is a 10Gb switch with 8 RJ45 ports and 2 SFP (which are shared).

I'll be connecting my ESXi 6 hosts to 6 of the RJ45 ports.

I currently have a server that I will be setting up as an iSCSI SAN. It has the following NIC:

Intel X520-DA2 Dual Port 10GBe SFP+

Can I connect the server with the above 10Gb card to the SFP ports on the Netgear switch? Will this work?

I've never used SFP before so just want to make sure. Thanks!
 
Also, can I use the following cable with this Netgear switch:

Cisco 3M SFP+ Cable 10Gb 37-0961-01 SFP-H10GB-CU3M

Will it work? Or do I need a Netgear SFP+ cable?
