can i use both optical and fiber sfp modules ?

Hi,

I have 2 stacked PowerConnect 3548P switches. The upper switch has got 1 MM fiber uplink (G1) to another switch in a different building. So the upper switch has 1 free uplink port and the lower switch 2 free uplink ports. We recently purchased 2 Poweredge R620 servers and I would like to connect them to Gigabit ports. The "normal" switch ports only allow 100Mbps, so I am considering to buy 2 SFP 1000Base-T modules (for copper) to connect them.

Is this feasible ? Can I use G2 on the upper switch also for 1 1000Base-T SFP ? Is this allowed ?

Regards,

Erik
