These are the supported types of SFP (Small form Factor Pluggable) transceivers that you can use with the X1700 Sockets. The transceivers are hot-pluggable, and you can mix LR (long-range) and SR (short-range) transceivers in the same Socket.
SR generally supports up to 25m (or 200-300m for advanced cables)
LR generally supports up to 10km

X1700 Socket Supported Transceivers
These are the supported transceiver types, and the Cato part numbers (P/N). When more than one P/N is available, you can order either option:
Caution:
Using unsupported SFP transceivers may cause unexpected behavior during Socket bootup.

X1500 and X1600 Sockets Support USB Ethernet Adapters
You can enable the USB1 and USB2 ports on an X1500 or X1600 Socket to use an Ethernet adapter as a WAN link for the Cato Cloud or as a VRRP link for HA keepalive traffic. This article lists the adapters that are supported by Cato for all X1500 and X1600 Socket models.
Note:
Cato recommends that you configure ethernet interfaces as WAN ports. Sockets support up to 3 WAN connections.
X1700 Sockets with Socket v20 and above support 4 WAN interfaces.
The maximum supported bandwidth for each USB WAN link is 25 Mbps for each direction (upload and download).
For Socket v14.0 and higher, the following adapters are supported:
Buffalo model：LUA4-U3-AGTE-BK
Elecom model：EDC-GUA3-B
Sanwa Supply model：USB-CVLAN1WN
Dell DBJBCBC064 USB 3.0
For Socket versions v5.0 - v13.x, the following adapter is supported:
