Nvidia compatible MFM1T02A-T Description
EdgeOptic's Nvidia MFM1T02A-T compatible is a Nvidia-coded 10GBASE-T copper SFP+ transceiver for Nvidia Networking host adapters, primarily the ConnectX-4, ConnectX-4 Lx, ConnectX-5, and ConnectX-6 Lx generations. The MFM1T02A-T continues to ship under the current Nvidia brand following the 2020 acquisition of Mellanox, and the part is widely deployed in server-side 10GBASE-T copper links. EdgeOptic programs the module EEPROM with Nvidia-recognised vendor identity, so ConnectX NICs running DOCA or MLNX_OFED accept the module without a vendor-override step.
The module operates per IEEE 802.3an for 10GBASE-T and IEEE 802.3bz for multi-rate auto-negotiation at 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+, and current ConnectX NICs negotiate high-power SFP+ mode automatically on 10GBASE-T capable cages.
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. Management tooling that expects optical DDM values should be configured to treat this module as a copper transceiver.
Target deployment is the Nvidia Networking ConnectX NIC family on the host side. Per-port power on 10GBASE-T copper SFP+ is higher than on fibre SFP+, so confirm host NIC and switch high-power SFP+ support before populating adjacent cages at high density. Engineers procuring for pre-acquisition Mellanox-branded inventory (ConnectX-3 era equipment, Mellanox OFED documentation) should refer to the Mellanox MFM1T02A-T compatible page, which is EEPROM-coded for that heritage brand anchor. Deployments built against the current Nvidia part identity belong on this page.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will the MFM1T02A-T work in a ConnectX-4 Lx, ConnectX-5, or ConnectX-6 Lx NIC without a vendor-unlock workaround?
Yes. EdgeOptic codes this module with Nvidia-recognised EEPROM, so ConnectX-4 Lx, ConnectX-5, and ConnectX-6 Lx adapters running MLNX_OFED or DOCA accept the transceiver under their standard vendor validation. No host-side override is required. ConnectX-7 is not included in this compatibility statement because no third-party or vendor source has confirmed MFM1T02A-T on the ConnectX-7 transceiver matrix; engineers targeting ConnectX-7 should verify against the current Nvidia transceiver compatibility documentation for that NIC generation.
Is the MFM1T02A-T the same part as MFM1T02A-TX, and can this compatible replace either ordering code?
Nvidia and third-party market listings circulate both MFM1T02A-T and MFM1T02A-TX against the same 10GBASE-T SFP+ copper specification, with the -TX suffix appearing on a later production revision. EdgeOptic's compatible is programmed to the MFM1T02A-T identity and is intended as a like-for-like replacement on equipment that specifies either ordering code in its transceiver guidance. Where a host explicitly validates only one suffix, verify the expected EEPROM string against the Nvidia Networking transceiver documentation for the specific ConnectX NIC firmware release before deployment.
