Intel compatible E65689-001 Description
E65689-001 is the Intel service-part reference for a 10GBASE-SR SFP+ shipped with Intel Ethernet adapter kits, primarily the X520-SR1 single-port and X520-SR2 dual-port SFP+ adapters. The EEPROM carries Intel-recognized vendor programming so X520, X710 and older Intel 82599-based NICs accept the optic under stock ixgbe and i40e drivers without the allow_unsupported_sfp module parameter. The module is 10 Gigabit Ethernet only. Maximum reach is 300 m over OM3 and 400 m over OM4 per IEEE 802.3ae Clause 52, and the module is not a multi-rate Fibre Channel part.
Optical build uses an 850 nm VCSEL transmitter and 850 nm PIN photodiode receiver, 6.1 dB minimum link budget, duplex LC connector and SFP+ MSA (SFF-8432) mechanical envelope. Line rate is 10.3125 Gbps. Reach is 300 m over OM3 and 400 m over OM4, with 82 m over OM2 and 33 m over OM1 for legacy multimode. SFF-8472 DDM/DOM publishes Tx power, Rx power, laser bias, module temperature and supply voltage to the host, readable from ethtool -m on Linux and from Intel PROSet on Windows. Qualified host platforms are Intel X520 family adapters (X520-SR1, X520-SR2, X520-DA2), the X710 family (X710-DA2, X710-DA4) and older 82599-based NICs. X540 and X550 are 10GBASE-T copper NICs with RJ45 cages and do not accept any SFP+ module; E65689-001 will not seat in those adapters.
Because E65689-001 is Intel's service-part reference, the SKU is most often requested for spares inventory on installed X520-SR1 and X520-SR2 adapter fleets where the original factory-shipped optic needs direct replacement. Typical deployment is server-to-ToR 10GbE uplinks on virtualization hosts, storage heads with X520 adapters connected to converged 10G fabric switches, and short-reach spine-to-leaf links inside a single hall. Commercial operating range is 0 to 70 degrees Celsius. For bulk replacement against a deployed X520-SR1 or X520-SR2 install base, lot-level Intel EEPROM qualification against a specific PBA revision, or mixed X520 and X710 fleet planning, please contact our sales team with the host adapter inventory list.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the correct maximum reach for E65689-001 over multimode fiber?
Maximum reach is 300 m over OM3 per the 10GBASE-SR IEEE 802.3ae Clause 52 link budget of 4.6 dB, and 400 m over OM4 with fully characterized fiber. Legacy 82 m over OM2 and 33 m over OM1 reach is supported on older multimode plant.
Which Intel adapters originally shipped with E65689-001?
E65689-001 is Intel's service-part reference for the 10GBASE-SR SFP+ bundled with X520-SR1 single-port and X520-SR2 dual-port adapter kits. The optic is also accepted on X520-DA2, X710-DA2, X710-DA4 and older 82599-based NICs under stock driver configuration.
Is E65689-001 a Fibre Channel capable module?
No. E65689-001 is 10 Gigabit Ethernet only at 10.3125 Gbps. The module does not carry Fibre Channel framing and is not a multi-rate 8GFC or 4GFC part.
