Hi,

Could you please advise on how to add an SFP port to the Orin Nano?

I can’t answer, but for the most part this would be the same as any desktop Linux PC. For example, if you have a NIC with an SFP port, then you’d have to set up the NIC with its driver (though a desktop might have this available as some sort of repository apt-get; the actual driver is no different). Then there might be a need for a driver for the specific SFP module, or maybe not. Maybe there is firmware specific to the NIC, and maybe other firmware specific to the SFP. There wouldn’t be any difference versus manually installing this to a desktop PC.

The place where things diverge is that desktop PC vendors tend to assume mainline kernels and desktop PC architecture. Jetsons are of course not desktop PC architecture.
