F5 Networks compatible OPT-0039-xx Description
OPT-0039-xx is F5 Networks' internal part number for a 100GBASE-LR4 QSFP28 transceiver. EdgeOptic's compatible replacement is built on our 100GBASE-LR4 QSFP28 platform. OPT-0039-xx is F5's internal OEM ordering code for the 100G LR4 module. The commercial field-upgrade equivalent is F5-UPG-QSFP28-LR4 — both part numbers resolve to the same 100GBASE-LR4 QSFP28 specification. OPT-0039-01 specifically denotes the 10 km LR4 variant; a separate -01-20 variant exists for 20 km reach. Don't confuse the two — they carry different EEPROM configurations despite identical optical fundamentals.
Four LAN WDM channels in the 1295-1310 nm range, 25G each, over duplex LC (UPC) single-mode fiber. IEEE 802.3ba 100GBASE-LR4 compliant, 6.3 dB optical path loss budget, supporting distances up to 10 km on G.652 single-mode fiber. TX power: -4.3 to +4.5 dBm, RX sensitivity: -10.6 dBm. Power draw is 4.5W per F5's official documentation. 0-70 C commercial temperature range. QSFP28 MSA-compliant form factor, hot-pluggable — modules can be pulled and replaced on a running F5 appliance without taking the chassis offline.
F5 techdocs lists the F5-UPG-QSFP28-LR4 (OPT-0039-01) as compatible with the i15000, r5000, r10000, r12000-DS, VIPRION B4400 Series blades, and VELOS BX110 blade. EdgeOptic's compatible is EEPROM-coded and MSA-compliant for these F5 platforms, initializing and establishing link without manual intervention. DDM diagnostics feed through the BIG-IP management interface — TX power, RX power, temperature, laser bias current, and supply voltage reported in real time.
F5 Networks' support policy (reference K8153) states that only F5-branded optics are officially supported on rSeries and VELOS platforms. Compatible modules aren't covered under F5 support contracts. EdgeOptic's OPT-0039-xx is functionally equivalent, EEPROM-coded for F5 platform recognition, and MSA-compliant. It initializes and operates normally, but F5 TAC may reference the K8153 policy if a support case involves the optic. Compatible optics are widely deployed on F5 ADC platforms across production and cost-optimized environments.
CE/RoHS certified, Class 1 laser safety compliant. EdgeOptic maintains EEPROM coding profiles for 80+ vendor platforms on the same production line. Verify both ends of the link match during commissioning — mixing LR4 and ER4 optics on the same fiber pair won't establish a stable connection.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between OPT-0039-xx and F5-UPG-QSFP28-LR4?
OPT-0039-xx is F5's internal OEM code. F5-UPG-QSFP28-LR4 is the commercial field-upgrade SKU sold through distribution. Same 100GBASE-LR4 QSFP28 module under both part numbers. OPT-0039-01 is the 10 km variant; the 20 km version carries a different F5 part number. EdgeOptic's compatible covers both ordering codes.
Will the OPT-0039-xx compatible cause a support issue with F5 on rSeries or VELOS?
F5's K8153 policy limits official support to F5-branded optics on rSeries and VELOS. EdgeOptic's module is EEPROM-coded and MSA-compliant — it initializes and links up correctly. However, if a TAC case involves the optic, F5 may cite K8153 and request reproduction with an F5-branded unit. Compatible optics are widely deployed on F5 platforms in production. Factor this policy into procurement decisions where F5 support coverage is a requirement.
Which F5 platforms support the OPT-0039-xx 100G QSFP28 transceiver?
Per F5 techdocs: i15000, r5000, r10000, r12000-DS, VIPRION B4400 blades, and VELOS BX110 blade. EdgeOptic codes the compatible for these same platforms. For hardware generations not on this list, provide the F5 model and TMOS/rSeries software version to EdgeOptic for confirmation before ordering.
