Intel compatible FTLX8571D3BCV-I3 Description
EdgeOptic's FTLX8571D3BCV-I3 compatible is an Intel-coded (gen-1 FTLX8571 chassis, Intel revision-3 EEPROM) version of the EdgeOptic 10G-SFP-300 multi-vendor 10GBASE-SR SFP+ transceiver. The Intel EEPROM identifies the optic as a recognized accessory on Intel X520 and X710 adapter families, so the NIC accepts the module on power-up without a vendor-mismatch warning in dmesg or ethtool. One universal SR hardware platform, 80+ vendor codes, including this Intel revision-3 variant.
Optical specifications, 10GBASE-SR class with 1000BASE-SX dual-rate operation. 850 nm VCSEL transmitter, PIN photodiode receiver, multi-mode duplex LC. Reach is 300 m on OM3 and 400 m on OM4 at 10GBASE-SR. TX output power runs −5 to 0 dBm, receiver sensitivity −11.1 dBm, receiver overload 0 dBm, link budget 6.1 dB. Multi-rate scope spans 1.25 to 11.32 Gbps, covering 10G Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet, 1G to 10G Fibre Channel, and STM-64. 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.
FTLX8571D3BCV-I3 is the Intel-coded SFP+ supplied as an accessory for the Intel X520-DA2, X520-SR1/SR2, and X710 server adapter families running 10GBASE-SR uplinks. The Intel EEPROM coding is what differs from the Finisar base module FTLX8571D3BCV; the optical hardware is the same. Verify the exact NIC model and driver release against Intel's transceiver compatibility documentation at quote stage, since SFP+ accessory support varies by adapter generation and operating system.
Intel ships multiple suffix variants of the FTLX8571D3BCV chassis. The -I3 suffix and the -IT suffix are different Intel EEPROM revision identifiers; the optical specifications are identical across the suffixes. The exact byte-level EEPROM difference is not publicly documented, so order the suffix that matches the original BOM rather than substituting between -I3 and -IT. Adjacent siblings FTLX8571D3BCVI31 and FTLX8571D3BCVIT1 are tracked as distinct PNs.
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
What is the difference between FTLX8571D3BCV-I3 and FTLX8571D3BCV-IT?
Both are the gen-1 Finisar FTLX8571D3BCV optical chassis with Intel EEPROM coding. The -I3 and -IT suffixes are different Intel revision identifiers carried in the module's serial-ID memory. The optical specifications, including the 850 nm VCSEL, 300 m OM3 reach, and 6.1 dB link budget, are identical across both suffixes. The exact byte-level EEPROM map is not publicly documented by Intel or Finisar, so order the suffix that matches the original BOM rather than substituting between -I3 and -IT.
Which Intel NICs accept the FTLX8571D3BCV-I3?
The Intel X520 series (X520-DA2, X520-SR1, X520-SR2) and the X710 family accept the FTLX8571D3BCV-I3 as a recognized 10GBASE-SR accessory. The Intel EEPROM is what lets the optic register cleanly on these NICs. Verify the exact adapter PCN and driver release against Intel's transceiver compatibility documentation before ordering, since accessory support varies by adapter generation and operating system.
