Finisar compatible FTLF8524P3BNL Description

EdgeOptic's FTLF8524P3BNL compatible is a Finisar-coded version of the EdgeOptic 10GFH-SFP-300I multi-vendor mobile-fronthaul transceiver. The original Finisar FTLF8524P3BNL is a 4G Fibre Channel and CPRI SFP rated to a maximum line rate of 4.25 Gbps, built for the 850nm short-wavelength multimode class. The EdgeOptic compatible covers those same lower rates and extends the operating envelope up to 10.138 Gbps, so it serves both legacy 4G ports and higher-rate fronthaul links from a single coded part.

The module operates across a multi-rate range of 1.228 to 10.138 Gbps, covering CPRI options 2, 3, 5, 6, 7 and 8 plus OBSAI RP3 x2/x4/x8. The original Finisar part caps at 4.25 Gbps, which sits below CPRI options 5 through 8 (4.9152 to 10.1376 Gbps), so the EdgeOptic compatible adds CPRI options 5, 6, 7 and 8 that the OEM line rate cannot reach. This makes it a forward-compatible substitute for sites moving from 4G-era radio links toward higher-capacity fronthaul without changing the optical interface.

Optically it transmits at 850nm over OM3, OM4 or OM5 multimode fiber to 300m with a duplex LC connector. The VCSEL transmitter runs at −6 to −1 dBm, the PIN receiver is rated to −11.1 dBm sensitivity with 0 dBm overload, and the link carries a 5.1 dB optical path loss budget across 110 ps/nm of chromatic dispersion. Digital diagnostics monitoring reports temperature, supply voltage, bias current and optical power in real time.

The original Finisar FTLF8524P3BNL is an SFP module, while the EdgeOptic compatible is built in the SFP+ form factor. SFP+ shares the SFP mechanical footprint and seats in SFP and SFP+ cages alike, with the host port setting the operating rate. The module carries an industrial temperature rating of −45 to +85 °C, in the same industrial temperature class as the OEM's −40 to +85 °C rating, for outdoor cabinets and remote radio sites.

Backed by 15+ years of EdgeOptic compatibility engineering across vendor optical platforms. To confirm the right coded part for a specific switch, router or radio platform, contact our sales team. Made to order with a 2-week lead time and a lifetime warranty included.

Frequently Asked Questions

The original FTLF8524P3BNL is an SFP module. Will the EdgeOptic SFP+ compatible fit the same port?

Yes. SFP and SFP+ share the same mechanical cage, so the EdgeOptic SFP+ compatible seats in any SFP or SFP+ port that held the original FTLF8524P3BNL. The host port sets the operating rate, so the module runs at the legacy 4G Fibre Channel and CPRI rates the original part supported as well as the higher rates it adds.

The original part tops out at 4G Fibre Channel. Does the EdgeOptic compatible reach the higher CPRI rates?

The original Finisar FTLF8524P3BNL caps at 4.25 Gbps, which sits below CPRI option 5 (4.9152 Gbps). The EdgeOptic compatible runs the full multi-rate range from 1.228 to 10.138 Gbps, so it operates at those same legacy rates and also reaches CPRI options 5, 6, 7 and 8 for higher-capacity fronthaul links. That makes it a capacity upgrade path on the same 850nm multimode interface.
