Supermicro compatible AOC-E10GSFPSR Description
AOC-E10GSFPSR is Supermicro's part number for a 10GBASE-SR SFP+ transceiver, listed under the AOC (Add-On Card) accessory line. Supermicro references this module for server platforms with SFP+ LAN-on-Motherboard (LOM) ports, including X11 and X12 generation boards with integrated 10GbE, as well as add-in NICs like the AOC-STGN-i2S and AOC-STG-i4S. The AOC-E10GSFPSR part number also appears in Supermicro's SuperServer and SuperStorage product configurators as the recommended SR-grade SFP+ optic for short-reach intra-rack and inter-rack server connectivity. EdgeOptic's compatible AOC-E10GSFPSR carries the correct EEPROM coding for proper identification in NIC driver and management software identification on these platforms.
Operating wavelength is 850 nm (VCSEL transmitter, PIN photodiode receiver). Connector: LC/UPC duplex. The module provides a minimum 6.1 dB optical budget for 300 m reach over OM3 fiber and 400 m over OM4. Rate support spans 1.25 Gbps to 10.3125 Gbps, covering 10GbE (IEEE 802.3ae) and GbE. DDM monitors optical power levels, laser bias current, module temperature, and supply voltage in real time. Operating temperature range: 0°C to 70°C. Mechanical and electrical compliance: SFF-8431 and SFF-8432. Typical power dissipation is 600 mW. The module is hot-swappable and draws power from the host SFP+ cage, requiring no external power connections.
Supermicro server NICs differ from managed switches in how they handle transceiver validation. Most Supermicro LOM and add-in NICs accept MSA-compliant SFP+ modules at the OS driver level without vendor-locking enforcement. The AOC-E10GSFPSR coding ensures the module reports its correct vendor identity in Supermicro's BMC management interface, which matters for inventory tracking and NIC management software inventory in data center deployments with mixed optics. Without the Supermicro-coded EEPROM, the module may appear as a generic or unknown device in BMC reports. In Linux environments, the module's vendor and part number fields are readable via ethtool and sysfs, providing additional confirmation of correct identification at the OS level.
EdgeOptic tests each unit for transmitter output power, receiver sensitivity, and EEPROM data integrity. CE and RoHS certified. For bulk server deployments or NIC-specific compatibility confirmation, contact our sales team.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does the AOC-E10GSFPSR work with third-party NICs in Supermicro servers?
The AOC-E10GSFPSR EEPROM coding is specifically for Supermicro-branded NICs and LOM ports. In third-party NICs (Intel, Mellanox/NVIDIA ConnectX), the module will function optically but may report as a generic or unrecognized vendor in the NIC's management software. If the third-party NIC enforces vendor locking (some Intel X710 firmware builds do), use the vendor-specific compatible module instead.
