I have FS and FlexOptix SFP and SFP+ (various LX, SR, LR) in X710-based cards, I don't remember what they're vendor-coded as (probably either Intel or Cisco for the FS, and either Intel or generic for the FlexOptix). It might vary between card firmware too, I don't recall having problems with these (they've been installed for a while though - still running 7.0 on some of them).
