Is there any brand you can name that can fulfill my purpose? Is there any piece of hardware you can suggest What SFP+transceiver is perfect to use.

I am working on a project need to establish channel between PCIE QSFP+ to single endpoint IC that require two lane (PCIE Gen 2 x2). Do you think I need to include extra PEX on the remote side? Best Regards Lucas Xu Hello Eli

Both were populated with the PEX8606 and SFP+ transceivers. Regards, Eli Hello,

However, It's unclear to me what hardware you used - you mention the PEX8606 which is an IC, but where is it actually located? Could you elaborate a bit on the physical hardware setup?
