[c-nsp] Nexus 7k support for Twin-ax cables with N7K-M132XP-12 line card

[Lincoln Dale]

they "seem" to "work" but trust me when i state (with a Cisco hat on) that there are good reasons we don't list the 1m/3m/5m passive CX1 as officially supported on N7K-M132XP-12 module.
if you are going to use them - either cisco branded or 3rd party ones - strongly suggest you actually 'test' them in all scenarios.

suggest you reach out to your account team too.  there may be other options available.


cheers,

lincoln.
