      Try running at the command line ifconfig -vvvvvvm ix0

      Does it show the SFP module or DAC as present?

      What are you connecting it to?

        It says the SFP is present:

        The card is connected via 3m OC4 to the SFP on the Switch.

        The switch recognizes the SFP.

          It looks to be logically down.

          It's not transmitting: TX: 0.00 mW (-40.00 dBm)

          Try running ifconfig ix0 up then rechecking. Or assigning and enabling the interface in pfSense.

            No change after I configure it as OPT1 in Pfsense.

              Except that it is now actually transmitting. You might try reconnecting the fibre and/or the SFP module.

              Does the switch show the link as UP? Do you see any link LEDs?

              An x520 NIC would usually 'just work' unless the remote side is set to 1G or otherwise not set to autonegotiate the speed.

                I've tried using an intel compatible DAC - still no carrier

                    Is it hard set to 10G at the switch? You need to match both ends so if it try either setting it to auto in the switch or setting the speed to 10G fixed in pfSense.

                      Actually it's autoselect on the Switch.

                      I even tried setting the interface on PfSense to 10GB SR

                      But the adapter seems to remain in auto select

                        Update - the problem was with the Mikrotik CSS610-8G-2S+. When switching with the very same config to the CRS309-1G-8S+IN, the links comes up fine.
