Extreme compatible 10501 Description
Extreme Networks-coded version of the EdgeOptic 25G-SFP28-100 multi-vendor 25GBASE-SR SFP28 transceiver. The 10501 compatible matches the Extreme Networks 10501 datasheet specification as a standard short-reach 25 Gigabit Ethernet optic over multimode fiber for ExtremeSwitching and VSP platforms running EXOS or Fabric Engine firmware. Extreme's pluggable documentation lists this module under both the 10501 part number and the 25G-SR-SFP100M alternate OPN; both ordering codes identify the same physical optic.
850 nm VCSEL transmitter, PIN photodiode receiver, TX power −5 to +2.4 dBm, RX sensitivity better than −10.3 dBm, 5.3 dB link budget. Reach is 100 m on OM4, 100 m on OM5, and 70 m on OM3 multimode fiber with an LC/UPC duplex connector. The module is IEEE 802.3 Clause 112 compliant and requires RS-FEC per Clause 91 (RS(528,514)) on the host switch port. Electrical interface follows SFF-8431 and SFF-8432, and DDM is SFF-8472 compliant. Power draw is 0.3 W across 0 to 70 °C.
The 10501 is Extreme's standard RS-FEC SR SFP28 and is distinct from Extreme's 10502 companion SR SFP28. 25GBASE-SR per IEEE 802.3by Clause 112 requires RS-FEC (Clause 91); a port configured for a different FEC mode will not achieve spec-compliant 25GBASE-SR operation, so confirm RS-FEC is enabled on the host before insertion. For the 10502's supported FEC modes and reach values under each mode, consult the Extreme Networks 10502 datasheet. FEC is configured per-port on EXOS under interface settings; the exact CLI syntax varies by EXOS release, so consult the Extreme EXOS Configuration Guide for the per-port FEC command applicable to your version. FEC mode must match on both ends of every link.
Extreme Networks does not block third-party optical modules on current EXOS releases. The legacy third-party optics feature license required on earlier EXOS releases has been removed per Extreme's official third-party optics policy. Works on ExtremeSwitching X870, X690, and X590 series, on 5420 and 5520 series stackable switches, and on VSP 7400 and VSP 8284 Fabric Engine platforms.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Extreme 10501 and 10502?
10501 is Extreme's standard SR SFP28 coded for RS-FEC, with 70 m OM3 and 100 m OM4 reach per IEEE 802.3by Clause 112. 10502 is Extreme's companion SR SFP28; for its supported FEC modes, reach values, and intended deployment scenarios, consult the Extreme Networks 10502 datasheet. If your deployment requires anything other than RS-FEC on the host port, verify the 10502 is the correct SKU against the Extreme 10502 datasheet before ordering.
Does EXOS block third-party SFP28 modules like the 10501 compatible?
No. Extreme Networks does not block third-party optical modules on current EXOS releases. The legacy third-party optics feature license required on earlier EXOS releases has been removed per Extreme's official third-party optics policy. The 10501 compatible carries Extreme-recognized EEPROM, so EXOS inventories the module as the expected 10501 at link-up. Per-chassis qualification is documented at optics.extremenetworks.com.
Is the 10501 the same module as 25G-SR-SFP100M?
Yes. Extreme Networks' pluggable documentation identifies 10501 and 25G-SR-SFP100M as alternate ordering codes for the same 25GBASE-SR SFP28 module. Both part numbers refer to the same optical and electrical specification (850 nm, 100 m OM4, RS-FEC required) and are honored across the EEPROM inventory path on EXOS and Fabric Engine.
