Finisar FWLF1625P2LXX 4.25Gb/s SFP 80km 1610nm LC SMF Transceiver

Product Description

The Finisar FWLF1625P2LXX is a high-performance SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable) transceiver module designed for demanding optical networking applications requiring extended reach over single-mode fiber. Operating at a data rate of 4.25Gb/s, this transceiver is suitable for Fibre Channel and other high-speed data transmission standards over distances up to 80 kilometers. The SFP form factor ensures compatibility with a wide range of networking equipment, including switches, routers, and host bus adapters. This module is specifically designed to operate at a wavelength of 1610nm. This wavelength is chosen for long-distance transmission as it falls within the extended C-band or L-band, where optical fiber exhibits low attenuation. The 80km reach capability makes it an excellent choice for metropolitan area networks (MANs), service provider backbones, and connecting geographically dispersed enterprise sites. It features a standard LC connector for a secure and reliable connection to the fiber optic infrastructure. Equipped with Digital Diagnostic Monitoring (DDM), the FWLF1625P2LXX provides real-time monitoring of critical operational parameters such as optical transmit and receive power, temperature, voltage, and laser bias current. This feature is essential for network administrators to ensure optimal performance, detect potential issues proactively, and facilitate troubleshooting. The hot-pluggable design allows for easy installation and replacement without interrupting network operations, making it a versatile solution for critical long-haul links.
