Asus XG-C100F won't detect SFP-10G-SR transceiver

[mwpastore]

I've compiled and installed this module and unfortunately an Asus XG-C100F card won't detect a SFP-10G-SR (FS.COM "Generic") transceiver. It's my understanding that these should be compatible. Any suggestions?

Thank you in advance!

Hi,

Normally all the standard SFP+ modules should be OK, but I know there exist some incompats or even black lists. Unfortunately can't do nothing here from driver side (

Thanks @cail, I appreciate the quick response. Who can I reach out to for hardware support? Asus?

You may try Asus, sure. But the chip design is under Marvell...
