Dell PC 7024 w/ SFP+ Module & 10 GB Transceivers
I've added a Dell 2 Port SFP+ Uplink Module (J3PC9) to a PowerConnect 7024, and inserted a 10GB Transceiver (0WTRD1 - SFP-10G-SR). The switch sees the uplink module properly (in slot 2), when looking under Switching > Slots > Summary (when using the web management). When I look at Switching > Ports > Port Configuration (Te1/2/1) it's showing the Transceiver part and revision as N/A. And the link doesn't come up when I connect the fiber.
I know the transceivers are good, as they work in a N3024, and I know the fiber is good.
My goal is to connect this 7024 to an N3024 via the 10GB Transceivers.
Is there any reason why this wouldn't be working? Or did I miss a step? I thought the module and transceivers were pretty much plug and play.
Any help or information would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Daniel,
Thanks for the reply. I already upgraded the firmware to 5.1.12.2 (the latest) before installing the module.
I haven't tried a loopback test - I'm not exactly sure how to do that on this switch.
As for the logging, I don't see anything at all for this port on the day/time in question.
I did do the following (fiber is currently disconnected) - so it looks like it does see two transceivers, or at least the SFP+ ports:
