Mellanox compatible MFM1T02A-T Description
EdgeOptic's Mellanox MFM1T02A-T compatible is a Mellanox-coded version of the EdgeOptic 10G-SFP-T multi-vendor 10GBASE-T copper SFP+ transceiver. This page targets the pre-acquisition Mellanox installed base, where engineers source against Mellanox-labelled documentation, OFED driver release notes, and ConnectX host adapters that predate the 2020 Nvidia acquisition. EdgeOptic programs the module EEPROM with Mellanox-recognised vendor identity so those hosts accept it on the standard transceiver inventory path.
The module operates per IEEE 802.3an for 10GBASE-T and IEEE 802.3bz for 2.5GBASE-T and 5GBASE-T, with IEEE 802.3ab fallback to 1000BASE-T. Reach is up to 30 m on Cat6a or Cat7 unshielded twisted-pair. The electrical and management interfaces follow SFF-8431, SFF-8432, and SFF-8472. Operating temperature covers 0 to 65 °C commercial grade with CE and RoHS certification. The module draws more power than a fibre SFP+; confirm host NIC and switch high-power SFP+ support per the NIC datasheet before populating adjacent cages at high density.
Because the MFM1T02A-T is a copper module, DOM telemetry is scoped to the fields that apply to a non-optical SFP+: case temperature, supply voltage, and link status. There is no laser, so transmit optical power, receive optical power, and laser bias current do not exist on this part and are not reported. Inventory tooling on Mellanox OFED hosts that expects optical DDM values should be configured to treat the module as a copper transceiver.
Primary deployment context for this page is host-side adapter use on the pre-acquisition Mellanox-branded ConnectX NIC installed base running Mellanox-branded firmware and OFED release notes. Verify the specific Mellanox NIC and firmware revision against the Mellanox or Nvidia transceiver compatibility documentation for the target adapter and firmware release before procurement. New procurement targeting current Nvidia ConnectX NICs, DOCA-era tooling, or the current Nvidia brand identity belongs on the Nvidia MFM1T02A-T compatible page, which is EEPROM-coded for the current Nvidia vendor string.
Backed by 15+ years of EdgeOptic compatibility engineering across vendor optical platforms. Ships next business day from EU stock with a lifetime warranty.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Mellanox-coded MFM1T02A-T different from a Nvidia-coded MFM1T02A-T, and which should I order?
The physical hardware is identical. MFM1T02A-T is a single SKU that Nvidia continues to ship following the 2020 Mellanox acquisition. The difference sits in the EEPROM vendor string. EdgeOptic supplies the Mellanox-coded variant on this page for deployments built around pre-acquisition Mellanox-branded equipment and Mellanox OFED documentation, and a Nvidia-coded variant on the Nvidia MFM1T02A-T compatible page for current Nvidia Networking deployments. Match the EEPROM coding to the brand identity of the host NIC and its firmware release.
Will a Mellanox-coded MFM1T02A-T work in a Mellanox ConnectX NIC, including Dell or HPE OEM-rebranded variants?
EdgeOptic's Mellanox-coded EEPROM is recognised by Mellanox-branded ConnectX adapters under their standard vendor validation. Verify the specific NIC model and firmware revision against the Mellanox or Nvidia transceiver compatibility documentation before deployment. Dell, HPE, and Supermicro OEM-rebranded ConnectX NICs built on the same Mellanox silicon may enforce OEM-specific validation rather than the Mellanox vendor string; for those OEM-branded hosts, confirm the expected EEPROM identity in the server vendor's qualified transceiver list.
