F5 Networks compatible OPT-0016-XX Description

OPT-0016-XX belongs to F5 Networks' OPT-prefix OEM optics catalog. F5 uses the OPT-series part numbers for transceivers sold alongside BIG-IP application delivery controllers and VIPRION chassis blades. The OPT-0016-XX maps to a 10GBASE-SR SFP+ specification, the same physical-layer standard as the F5-UPG-SFP+-R from F5's upgrade parts catalog. The two SKUs differ only in procurement channel and part-number convention; optically and electrically, EdgeOptic compatible covers the 10GBASE-SR variant of this part number; confirm your specific suffix with F5 documentation.

F5 BIG-IP appliances with SFP+ interfaces include the i-series (i2000 through i15000) and r-series platforms. specific VIPRION blade models with 10GbE SFP+ optical interfaces also accept this module. These platforms handle load balancing, SSL/TLS offload, application firewall (ASM), and DNS services. The 10GBASE-SR link typically connects the BIG-IP to a top-of-rack or aggregation switch over short multimode runs inside the data center.

The transceiver operates at 850 nm using a VCSEL transmitter and PIN photodiode receiver per IEEE 802.3ae. Minimum link budget: 6.1 dB. Reach: 300 m on OM3, 400 m on OM4 multimode fiber with LC/UPC duplex connectors. DDM per SFF-8472 reports optical Tx/Rx power, module temperature, supply voltage, and laser bias current. F5's TMOS (Traffic Management Operating System) reads DDM values through the platform's hardware monitoring subsystem.

Supported data rates: 1.25 to 10.3125 Gbps. The module covers 10GbE at line rate; 1GbE fallback depends on host port rate-select support. Mechanical and electrical design: SFF-8431/SFF-8432 MSA. Operating temperature: 0 to 70 °C, CE/RoHS certified.

EdgeOptic's compatible OPT-0016-XX is programmed with F5-recognized EEPROM coding and tested on current TMOS firmware releases. The module is functionally interchangeable with the F5-UPG-SFP+-R. For BIG-IP or VIPRION platform confirmation, contact our sales team.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the F5 OPT-0016-XX the same module as the F5-UPG-SFP+-R?

The optical and electrical specifications are identical. OPT-0016-XX comes from F5's OEM optics catalog (shipped with new appliances), while F5-UPG-SFP+-R is the field-replacement/upgrade part number. Either can be used interchangeably in the same BIG-IP or VIPRION SFP+ slot.

Does the OPT-0016-XX work in F5 VIPRION blades?

Yes. F5 lists this part number for VIPRION C2400 and C4800 chassis blades with 10GbE SFP+ interfaces, in addition to BIG-IP i-series and r-series appliances. EdgeOptic's compatible carries the same EEPROM coding and is accepted by TMOS without modification.
