While this is a good link, it doesn't tell the whole story for all
platforms.
For example, in the ME3750 the matrix says that the GLC-T will do
10/100/1000 but it won't (or at least it didn't) - not in all the ports -
some SFP ports are gigabit only regardless of the module being tri-speed
capable. You'll only find that information in the ME3750 documentation or by
trial and error. Obviously, there may be other examples.
Yes, we did get caught with this. Consequently, we don't completely trust
documentation on the Cisco website.
<rant>So +1 to Cisco for providing a matrix but -5 for not providing all the
information. It's a pity that you need to read multiple sets of
documentation to find a single piece of information.</rant>
