NetBox version

v4.0.6

Feature type

Data model extension

Proposed functionality

Add 100Mbps SFP interface type (100 Base FX)

Use case

I'm documenting an active network device that we have: Alcatel 7250 SAS
Specs: https://www.starmicrowave.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/7250SAS_v2.pdf

I tried to create 100Mbps SFP interface but netbox only has SFP (1GE). This device has both 100Mbps and 1GB. It would be useful to differentiate

Hi, and thanks for your interest in helping improve NetBox.

My understanding of media and connectors is not comprehensive. Before I move your issue out of triage, please confirm that you are in fact using NetBox v4.0.6 as indicated. I ask because issue #11371 already added a 100Base-FX interface type, albeit without the SFP connector type designation.

Yes, I'm using Netbox v4.0.6. 100Base-FX interface type is one way if the switch was it fixed using SC, FC, ST (or another type) port... however this switch use SFP slot.
