Hi,

Do you know if we can use the below HPE DAC Cable and HP Switch to connect to the NetApp Storage EF280 ???

JH295A	HPE 1950 12XGT 4SFP+ Switch
JH695A	HPE X240 10G SFP+ SFP+ 3m DAC C-Cable

couple resources you can use to verify the cabling:

The NetApp® Interoperability Matrix Tool (IMT) defines the qualified components and versions you can use to build FC/FCoE, iSCSI, NFS and CIFS configurations.

What is the exact HW configuration of the EF280?  (What variant, HIC installed, etc.)

Generally, 10GbE SFP+ twinax cable connections with 3rd party switches "just worK", especially if you use the switch's approved cables - it's standards-based and usually reliable.
