DAC Compatible with T3200
I've got a setup at home, where I have my Fibre going into a Mikrotik CRS305-1G-4s+IN, then split between my UDM and my Telus T3200. I originally had the Fibre directly to my UDM, but because it onl...

Yea, the udm side works fine, the nice thing is, the MikroTik upgrades the connection from 2.5Gbpe to 10Gbps, so that part works.
The MikroTik to the Telus t3200 is the issueI only have 1 4k box, and only use it once in a while, but just hoping to get it all working as I want
You should be able to lock the switch port on the Mikrotik at 1Gbps, as that what the T3200 is looking for... Remember you are mixing SFP+ at 10Gbps on the Mikrotik with SFP at 1Gbps on T3200. That combo will not sync.

Good after noon...
For a little clarification please...
What speed internet do you currently have?
If you have the Telus Gpon connected directly to the Mikrotik switch I presume you have the 2 separate WAN IP addresses issued by Telus correct?
And the Mikrotik is passing the signal through to your UDM? Please confirm that you have a UDM Pro?
As well, please clarify for me if you would be so kind. When you say you could just continue to use the Ethernet cable,
I surmise you have a SFP to RJ45 adapter connected to you Mikrotik ? And then the RJ45 cable connects to the white WAN port on your T3200? Or, are you connecting the RJ45 Cable into the POE/ETH port 1 on the CRS305?
I have found that the 10Gtek DAC Cables SFP+ Twinax Cable, Passive, Compatible with Ubiquiti, from Amazon seem to work just fine with my system. and at around $10.00 - 15.00 buck not a bad deal...
Thank you, and look forward to continuing the dialog... Cheers

I have 1Gbps up/down, so no real benifit atm of all these upgrades, but I like to play. As for the Mikrotik, I have the GPon plugged in to the Mikrotik switch and have 2 seperate WAN IP's.

I do have a UDM Pro, yes. I have the Ethernet cable plugged into the RJ45 Eth/PoE port on the Mikrotik switch (the switch is set to SwitchOS, so acting purely as a switch atm) and then into the WAN port on the T3200, yes

Those are the DAC's I'm currently using, but for some reason the T3200 doesn't seem to want to connect to the switch using it. I've used the known working cable that I have in the UDM, and it's not working either when plugged into the T3200.

You may have to force the UDM Pro SFP+ port to sync at 1Gbps within the UDM Pro settings. It may not sync with Autonegotiation turned on... I know I had to force mine on the USG-XG-8...

The MikroTik to the Telus t3200 is the issue 😞 I only have 1 4k box, and only use it once in a while, but just hoping to get it all working as I want 🙂
