For long XAUI links, we have been planning on (i.e. have not actually
tried yet) using fiber optic cables with CX4 connectors that contain
embedded fiber optic transceivers.

Has anyone tried to send 10Gbe data to an iBOB over long (10-15m)
CX4 cables?
We find that the iBOB can transmit OK but not receive - its carrier
detect LED
does not light up. We have no problems with 3m cables.
Not sure if changing pre-emphasis or signal level would help as the
problem
appears to be on the receive side. Has anyone else tried this?
