SFP+ transceiver for 8 Gbps Fibre Channel
The AddOn FTLF8528P2BCV-AO is a Finisar-compatible SFP+ module built for 8 Gbps Fibre Channel links over multi-mode fibre. It targets data-centre operators and storage administrators who need a drop-in replacement that meets MSA standards and carries OEM configuration data for immediate recognition.
Sustained 850 nm operation over 300 m
The 850 nm VCSEL is rated for continuous wave output across the full 300 metre reach on OM3 or OM4 multi-mode fibre. Factory testing verifies that optical power and receiver sensitivity remain within specification during extended traffic loads, so the link stays up without the power drift that can appear in unqualified modules.
Hot-plug LC duplex installation
The LC duplex receptacle mates with standard patch cords and the SFP+ latch secures the module in any compliant cage. Because the EEPROM is pre-loaded with the correct vendor identifiers, the host switch or HBA initialises the port without manual configuration; the only common issue is inserting the connector upside-down, which the keyed LC design prevents.

Questions about this item
How much power does the 850nm SFP+ transceiver draw when running continuously?
The module follows the SFP+ MSA power envelope, so typical draw stays well within the slot budget for all-day operation.
What cabling and patch panels must I already have for the LC duplex interface?
You need OM3 or OM4 multi-mode patch cords with LC duplex connectors and matching LC bulkheads or cassettes in your rack.
Will this 8Gb Fibre Channel SFP+ work alongside my older 4Gb and 2Gb switches?
Yes, the transceiver auto-negotiates down to 4Gb and 2Gb speeds, so it interoperates with legacy Fibre Channel gear.
