8G SFP+ Transceiver for Optical Networks

The AddOn FTLF8528P2BNV-AO is an 8-Gigabit SFP+ transceiver designed for 8GBase-SW optical and data networks. It operates at 850nm over 50/125 µm multi-mode fiber with a reach of 300m. The module uses an LC duplex connector and a hot-swappable form factor for server and storage connectivity.

Hot-Swappable Installation and Compliance

Installation is a hot-swap action into any MSA-compliant SFP+ cage; no tools or host reboot are required. The unit is factory loaded with OEM-specific configuration data so it initialises identically to the original transceiver. Improper handling can contaminate the LC ferrules, and forcing the latch damages the cage spring.

Pre-Order Setup Checks

Verify that your switch or HBA port supports 8GBase-SW and accepts third-party MSA modules without firmware locks. Confirm the link will use 50/125 µm multi-mode cable with LC duplex patch cords and that the total channel length stays within 300m. Ensure the host SFP+ cage is clean and the port speed is configured for 8-Gigabit operation.

Questions about this item

How do I verify the 850nm 300m link is working after installing the FTLF8528P2BNV-AO?

Check the switch or HBA port LEDs for a solid link light and confirm the interface reports 8GBase-SW speed with no CRC errors on the 50/125 µm multi-mode fiber run

What ships with the FTLF8528P2BNV-AO and what must I provide separately?

The transceiver itself ships ready to install; you must supply LC duplex patch cables and 50/125 µm multi-mode fiber cable plant

Which version of this transceiver should I choose for an 8GBase-SW multi-mode link?

The FTLF8528P2BNV-AO is the single 8G SFP+ variant built for 850nm multi-mode fiber up to 300m with an LC duplex interface
