I'm using primarily FS adapters, cables (single and multi mode), and fiber connectors (to allow multiplexing lanes). The adapters I bought were "generic" and had to be tweaked using an FS BOX to be fully compatible with Intel or Mellanox NICs. This tweaking seems to have helped a lot with the 100 Gb interface (E810); the 10 Gb interfaces do not show much benefit to be manufacturer specific -- though I'm sure it doesn't hurt! I have not tried a multi-mode to single mode splitter / joiner, but I'd suppose they do exist & if anybody here has had experience that would be useful to hear about! I hope this is useful! - MLD
