. The FTLX8571D3BCL is a “limiting module”, i.e., it employs a limiting receiver.  

Host board designers using an EDC PHY IC should follow the IC manufacturer’s 
recommended settings for interoperating the host-board EDC PHY with a limiting 
receiver SFP+ module. The transceiver is RoHS compliant and lead free per Directive
