Intel compatible AFBR-709DMZ-IN2 Description

EdgeOptic's AFBR-709DMZ-IN2 compatible is an Intel-coded (Avago/Broadcom AFBR-709 generation) version of the EdgeOptic 10G-SFP-300 multi-vendor 10GBASE-SR SFP+ transceiver. The Intel EEPROM revision 2 identifies the optic as a recognized Intel accessory on X520 and X710 NIC families, so the adapter firmware accepts the module without manual override. One universal SR hardware platform, 80+ vendor codes, including this Intel-coded Avago/Broadcom AFBR-709 variant for short-reach multi-mode datacenter links.

Optical specifications, 10GBASE-SR class. 850 nm VCSEL transmitter, PIN photodiode receiver, multi-mode duplex LC. Reach is 300 m on OM3 and 400 m on OM4. TX output power runs −5 to 0 dBm, receiver sensitivity −11.1 dBm, receiver overload 0 dBm, link budget 6.1 dB. Dual-rate operation covers 1000BASE-SX (1.25 Gbps) and 10GBASE-SR (10.3125 Gbps) on the same physical port, with the wider multi-rate scope reaching 11.32 Gbps for 10G Fibre Channel and STM-64 use. DDM/DOM is supported. Compliance: SFF-8431, SFP MSA, IEEE 802.3ae, RoHS, IEC60825-1 Class 1 laser safety. Operating range 0 to 70°C commercial. The -IN2 suffix is an Intel EEPROM revision designator, not an industrial-temperature qualifier.

AFBR-709DMZ-IN2 is the Intel-coded Avago/Broadcom AFBR-709 generation 10GBASE-SR SFP+ qualified by Intel for X520 and X710 adapter families. With Intel-recognized EEPROM, the X520 / X710 driver enables the port without the third-party-module advisory that appears when a non-Intel-coded optic is inserted. The wider Avago/Broadcom AFBR-709 generation also turns up on Dell, HPE, and Lenovo NIC variants under each vendor's own EEPROM coding, but the -IN2 build is the Intel revision-2 specific code. Verify the exact Intel internal part code against Intel's accessory matrix at quote stage if your purchase order references an Intel cross-reference number.

The AFBR-709DMZ base PN ships in multiple Intel EEPROM revisions, including AFBR-709DMZ-IN2 (revision 2, this page) and AFBR-709DMZ-IN3 (revision 3, separate EdgeOptic page). The optical specs are identical across revisions; the IN suffix tracks Intel's qualification cycle, not optical performance. AFBR-709SMZ is the Avago base build without Intel coding, and the AFBR-710 generation is the newer-generation 10G SR SFP+ on the same optical platform.

Backed by 15+ years of EdgeOptic compatibility engineering across vendor optical platforms. Ships next business day from EU stock with a lifetime warranty included.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will the AFBR-709DMZ-IN2 work on Intel X520 and X710 NIC families without third-party-module warnings?

Intel X520 and X710 driver software checks the SFP+ EEPROM vendor identifier and flags non-Intel-coded modules with a third-party-transceiver advisory. EdgeOptic codes the AFBR-709DMZ-IN2 compatible with the Intel-recognized EEPROM (revision 2 build) so the port enables cleanly without the advisory. Intel's accessory matrix occasionally adds new internal cross-reference codes per driver release, so verify the exact Intel internal PN at quote stage if your purchase order ties to a specific Intel cross-reference.

What is the difference between AFBR-709DMZ-IN2 and AFBR-709DMZ-IN3?

Both AFBR-709DMZ-IN2 and AFBR-709DMZ-IN3 are Intel-coded EEPROM revisions of the same Avago/Broadcom AFBR-709DMZ 10GBASE-SR SFP+. Optical specs are identical: 850 nm VCSEL, 300 m OM3, 400 m OM4, dual-rate 1G/10G. The IN2 vs IN3 designator tracks Intel's qualification cycle, not optical differences. If your switch or NIC accessory matrix specifies one revision, EdgeOptic ships against that revision. Verify the exact Intel internal cross-reference at quote stage.
