Hello guys,
I have an customer that requires 4 Ethernet WAN connections (1 Gbps total throughput) and 2 LTEA connections.
In our design the SDX fits perfect in case there is the option of LAN to WAN in the default LAN ports.
Can you please confirm if this is possible?
I will be very attentive to your response.
Best Regards
JC
@Juan_carlos_Luna_kan, currently, the SDX only allows the 8x GE PoE+ Module (EXM-8C) to be assigned as Ethernet (copper) LAN or WAN ports.
If the requirement is 4x Ethernet (copper) WAN ports + 2x LTEA connections using the SDX model, you may consider the copper Transceivers to convert the 2x SFP+ ports to make it 4x Ethernet (copper) WAN ports.
Hi @WeiMing,
we have the same issue. Difference is we need 8 WAN Ports (for 8 HD1 Dome) and 3 LTE, so can’t use the EXM Module. Even PoE is needed for that.
Is it a Software or a Hardware issue why this is not implemented yet?
Thanks
Dennis
If you require additional ethernet WAN ports, please consider the SDX Pro which has 2x FlexModules
The ethernet FlexModules support PoE and each port can be individually configured as LAN or WAN.
Hi Sam,
yes, I know that. My customer has some SDX without Pro and won’t buy new ones 
Hello Dennis,
Just an idea you may have already considered (this is based on that your expansion port is populated with an EXM-8C and not an EXM cellular-based expansion module, and you are using three external cellular modems):
On the other hand, if you are using an EXM Cellular module, then we give this a plus 1 vote (you may need to have this as a feature request).
It may be more than just a case of needing a new version of Firmware; there could be an underlying technical limitation on the base SDX model preventing using the inbuilt LANs as WANs.
Happy to Help,
Marcus 
@mldowling what SFP Ethernet adaptors work for gigabit copper ethernet in the on-board SFP ports on the SDX? To my experience none work.
Hello @Maxwell_Paine,
We use an Australian-owned brand, PlusOptic; they are now wholly owned by another Australian company called 4Cabling; it is from this manufacturer that we have had the best success rate for SPF adaptors in Peplink models.
Here is a URL to the SFP Copper Ethernet model ( https://www.4cabling.com.au/fibre-products/rj45-media-converters/sfp-modules.html?fibre_transmission_standard=Copper&trans_vendor=PlusOptic ) and can be used for online ordering.
NOTE: Peplink does not officially support this brand, nor has Peplink tested the brand. We want Peplink to test the PlusOptic range and add the results to the Peplink published list of tested SFPs.
Happy to Help,
Marcus 
Hello @Maxwell_Paine,
Edit your search filter on the left to just “Copper X”
