SFP/SFP+ Interface Support

...

The TE-1415 and TE-1425 appliances support four active 10GbE interfaces in the optional 1GbE SFP and 10GbE SFP+ configurations. Other appliances in the Infoblox 1405 Series, comprising the ND-1405 and TR-1405, support three active interfaces in the optional 1GbE SFP and 10GbE SFP+ configurations. The port designated HA is inactive for these appliances. Order of ports from left to right is otherwise identical.
The Infoblox PT-1405 operates only with 1GbE SFP interfaces, and supports HA.

...

You cannot add SFP/SFP+ support after you have purchased an appliance model that does not have the SFP/SFP+ interfaces pre-installed. Contact your Infoblox representatives if you are interested in purchasing appliances that support SFP/SFP+ interfaces.

In optional configurations for select Infoblox 1405 Series appliances, 1GbE SFP and 10GbE SFP+ ports replace the functionality in the original built-in MGMT, LAN1, HA and LAN2 ports, thereby disabling the built-in ports as indicated in Figure 3. 10GbE support accepts Infoblox-provided SFP+ 10GbE Short Range and Long Range transceivers, Cisco SFP+ Direct Attach 10GSFP+Cu, or HP HPJ9283B SFP+ Direct Attach 10GSFP+Cu transceivers.
You may mix media types in the set of ports (e.g., two copper interfaces and two fiber interfaces).
You may use SFP and SFP+ transceivers in a mixed configuration in 4-Port 10GbE appliances. An example use case involves installing 10GbE SR SFP+ transceivers in the LAN1 and LAN2 ports for the TE-1405, TE- 1415, or TE-1425 appliance, and installing 1GbE SFP copper transceivers in the MGMT and HA interfaces.

For ND-1405 and TR-1405 appliance models configured with 1GbE SFP or 10GbE SFP+ interfaces, the HA port is reserved for future use and cannot be used for network applications. Order of ports from left to right is otherwise the same. (The PT-1405 does not support 10GbE operation, but supports HA.)
