It's a GS-5220-46S2C4X 48 port SFP switch with four SFP+ ports.

So maybe I need to lock down the SFP+ port to 10Gbps.

Also, I can't seem to find updated firmware for this switch.

Is Planet actively supporting and updating firmware for their switches?

The original and only firmware appears to be from 2015.

What model Planet 48 SFP switch are you using? My experience is with the 
MGSW-28240F. The SFP+ slots will work on auto... until they don't. Auto in this 
case being 1G/10G module speed detection. I don't think there's ethernet 
auto-negotiation on those interfaces at all. You have to set the other end at 
1G or 10G FDX or the link won't work. If the other end is a MikroTik, the 
interface will show up, because it's dumb and simply sees light and thinks it's 
good.
