Pros & Cons
Pros
This module does what it supposed to but it runs rather hot. I have two similar sfp+ modules both 10g rg45 plugged into mikrotik crs305-1g-4s+in both running at 10gbps speed. Good module otherwise.

This is likely why mikrotik recommends spacing and staggering them so it must be a known issue
