A: No. The physical circuit of the 1G module only supports 1.25Gbps signal. Forcing the SFP+ port to 10G mode will result in: port error, link failure, and even damage to the module in extreme cases.

The answer is definitely "No" SFP optics do work in SFP+ slots in most cases, but SFP+ optics on 10Gb switch can never work in SFP slots on gigabit switch. The reason is about a power

Some SFP transceiver device ports, can support different "speed" transceivers. E.g. a SFP+ port can support a 1Gbps or 10Gbps SFP transceiver, but, again, both end''s/switch''s

As mentioned earlier, the standard transmission rate of the SFP+ port is 10G. Typicaly, it is connected with a 10G module. In fact, it can also be connected to a 1G module if necessary.
