Yes, BiDi Media Converter provides only one available single fiber port, and can connect a single fiber cable between two TX ports, they need to be used together.

@@10gtek Mine says it's BiDi in the advertisement. I wonder if I disconnected 2nd port if it would actually DO that. BiDi supposedly uses two different wavelengths of light signal to accomplish 2 directions. Interestingly, by the color of the cable, you seem to be using multimode fiber on a supposedly single mode device.

@@alanspicertelecom Regarding the BIDI Media Converter you purchased, we recommend that you can test it to see if it works. The device in our video is supported by multimode fiber.

Yes, the transceiver is compatible with Intel 82599 pciex cards.

We recommend that you use SC/UPC connectors.

Yes, it works on Windows 7/8/10 and Ubuntu 16/18/19/20.

There is no relationship between the EEPROM of the DAC and the EEPROM of the network card. As long as your devices are of the same type and follow the Ethernet protocol standard, then they should work fine.

Another question! Let's take the DAC cable and change the cable length in its EEPROM. For example, the cable was 1m, change this value to 2m. After such a change in the length value in the cable EEPROM, will communication between the two NICs work? Do you have the opportunity to try? @@10gtek

@@pcb7377 In general, if the length value in the cable EEPROM is modified, the two network cards will still work properly.

@@10gtek Thanks for the answer! Can you try this?

@@pcb7377 We will update the video in the future, please follow our information.

Would you mind providing more details on how you connect and how you use it? So that we can better find the reason for you.

We're glad this video helped you.

Under 1 meter. Usually, 0.5m, 0.75m.

You need to configure the switch port, split the port, and you can use it.

This will not work.

MC1 Tx -> MC2 Rx MC2 Tx -> MC1 Rx. Only this will work.

@@10gtek I think he mis-typed MC3 meaning MC1. Nowhere else does he mention an MC3 and he would need to tell a lot more info about MC3 ... and you obviously can't connect 3 MC's to each other.

@@alanspicertelecom Yes, the media converter cannot connect 3 MC'S to each other.

If the SFP module cannot be pulled out, we recommend that you use tweezers or a knife to insert it from the middle of the bottom of the SFP module to lift the module, then you can pull out the SFP. You can try this method.

The transmission rate of 10G network card is 10Gbps. Due to an editing error, the second half of the video uses the test video of the 1.25G network card, so the transmission rate of the final test result of this video is 1Gbps. We apologize for the inconvenience.

@@10gtek well ty for being honest. hope you guys do better in the next video 🥲

​@@AinzOoalG0wn Thank you for your confidence. We won't let you down.

This network card is a normal NIC network card. Regarding "CONVERGED Card", this is a description we quoted from Intel's official website. We apologize for the inconvenience.

Would you mind providing your order number and purchase platform? We will assign our dedicated customer service to solve your problem.

Thank you for your suggestion. We will improve our details in the future and bring you a better experience.

Hello there. Thank you for the contact. Normally, the Cisco transceivers can be worked flawlessly on Folarflare devices. Please provide more details of device model no. for our analysis. Our customer service will follow up your case.

Could you please advise us the connectivity with the Solareflare card? Like, cable type/length, other side device model. When inserted to Solarflare card, any information showed?

Yes, it is compatible with Windows 11 Pro on HP/Dell Workstations.

The video is shooted with 1.25G SFP copper transceiver. The cable should be CAT.5e, with a reach of 100m.

100 % throughput can't be achieved.

The transceivers are plug and play and can be install/remove when the host is power on.

you have the wrong info as i have a INTEL X520-DA1 with INTEL AFBR-703SDZ-IN2 fiber transceiver installed in a diel boot windows / linux machine and it works 100%

Actually, NIC cards can be connected to DACs and transceivers. We just use the DAC cable to make the video. You can choose the suitable product according to your needs.

Yes, there is no comparison. This NIC card is compatible with Intel X540-T2, with the same chipset.

@@10gtek Thank you for the reply. Much appreciated. Good to know you monitor and reply to comments. Perhaps the confusion arises because of a subtle difference between very similar English words? Compare is in the title, but you are NOT doing a compare. Just FYI "compare to Intel" is BAD English anyway. It's grammatically incorrect. I wonder if the word you meant to use in the title is "COMPARABLE" ("able to be likened to another; similar"). The word compatible (used in your reply) in this context means "works along side of" or "works in association with". It doesn't mean "is similar to" or doesn't mean "is a replacement for". If you were to say "the card is compatible WITH THE INTEL DRIVER SOFTWARE" - then that is the correct usage of compatible. If you use the word "compatible" you have to say what the subject is compatible with (in my example - Intel software). BTW I have seen your products on Amazon UK. I am looking for a dual RJ45 NIC 10Gbe card. I have found this product. My only concern is that this is an OLD chipset and not as fast as the newer X550, however the X550 dual channel is very expensive. So I am certainly considering purchasing your card. For clarity can your card use the Intel X540-T2 drivers? In other words is it COMPATIBLE with the Intel drivers? Or do I have to download your version of drivers from your own website?
