Finisar SFP 1000Base-LX Transceiver
The Finisar FTLF1318P3BTL is a Small Form Factor Pluggable transceiver designed for network and server equipment. It targets administrators upgrading or repairing Gigabit Ethernet or 1x Fibre Channel links in data centres or enterprise environments. The module conforms to the SFP Multi-Sourcing Agreement for broad host compatibility.
Single-mode LC Duplex 1000Base-LX
This transceiver operates over 9/125 µm single-mode fibre using an LC duplex connector. It supports 1000Base-LX Gigabit Ethernet per IEEE 802.3 and 1x Fibre Channel per FC-PI-4 Rev 8.00. It does not support multi-mode fibre, copper cabling or speeds beyond 1 Gbps.
MSA Digital Diagnostics and RoHS Compliance
Digital diagnostics monitoring is accessible via the 2-wire serial bus defined in the SFP MSA, allowing real-time parameter tracking. The unit is RoHS compliant and lead-free per Directive 2002/95/EC and Finisar Application Note AN-2038. No cables, management software or mounting hardware are bundled.

Questions about this item
Will this FTLF1318P3BTL SFP work with my existing single-mode 9/125 µm fibre plant?
Yes, it supports single-mode fibre with a 9/125 µm core/cladding and a duplex LC connector for 1000Base-LX links.
How can I verify the module is operating correctly once installed?
Digital diagnostics are available over the 2-wire serial bus defined in the SFP MSA, letting you monitor temperature, voltage, bias current and optical power.
Does the package include any fibre patch cords or only the transceiver itself?
Only the SFP transceiver is supplied; compatible LC duplex single-mode patch cables must be purchased separately.
