2.11
Supported
1G
Optical
Transceivers
is
a
list
of
supported
1G
transceivers
that
have
been
tested
by
Solarflare.
Solarflare
is
not
aware
of
any
issues
preventing
the
use
of
other
brands
of
1G
transceivers
with
Solarflare
network
adapters.
However,
only
transceivers
in
the
table
below
have
been
fully
verified
and
are
therefore
supported.
2.12
Supported
Speed
and
Mode
Solarflare
network
adapters
support
either
QSFP+,
SFP,
SFP+
or
Base
‐
T
standards.
On
Base
‐
T
adapters
three
speeds
are
supported
100Mbps,
1Gbps
and
10Gbps.
The
adapters
use
auto
negotiation
to
automatically
select
the
highest
speed
supported
in
common
with
the
link
partner.
On
SFP+
adapters
the
SFP
module
(transceiver)
determines
the
supported
speeds,
typically
SFP
modules
only
support
a
single
speed.
Some
Solarflare
SFP+
adapters
support
dual
speed
optical
modules
that
can
operate
at
either
1Gbps
or
10Gbps.
However,
these
modules
do
not
auto
‐
negotiate
link
speed
and
operate
at
the
maximum
(10G)
link
speed
unless
explicitly
configured
to
operate
at
a
lower
speed
(1G).
