SuperMicro AOC-STGN-I2S - which transceivers work ?

[britinpdx]

I have a SuperMicro AOC-STGN-I2S (Intel 82599 based x520 clone) incoming.

Is this card "locked" in any way (possibly to to the Supermicro AOC-E10GSFPSR transceiver) or is it "open" to work with say the Finisar FTLX8571D3BCL transceiver ? (I have a few of the Finisar at hand)

My experience with Supermicro has been that they generally support as many transceivers as possible. That being said, the only way to know for sure is to talk to a Supermicro tech. Give 'em a call. They pick up quickly, don't speak with a hard-to-understand accent, and are very knowledgeable about their products. They've got some of the better support in the business.

Answering my own question ...

The Finisar FTLX8571D3BCL transceiver works no problem with the SuperMicro AOC-STGN-I2S
