Finisar compatible FTLX1471D3BCV Description

The EdgeOptic 10G-SFP-10 is a compatible replacement for the Finisar FTLX1471D3BCV 10GBASE-LR SFP+ transceiver. It provides 10 Gigabit Ethernet over single-mode fiber at 1310nm, reaching up to 10 km with a duplex LC connector. The FTLX1471D3BCV is a variant of the FTLX1471 family supplied with platform-specific EEPROM coding, for host systems that check transceivers against a vendor whitelist.

The transceiver has a 1310nm DFB laser transmitter and PIN photodiode receiver. The 10GBASE-LR line rate is 10.3125 Gbps with 64B/66B encoding per IEEE 802.3ae; the dual-rate 1000BASE-LX operation at 1.25 Gbps uses 8B/10B encoding per IEEE 802.3z. The module has a 6 dB guaranteed optical link budget over G.652 single-mode fiber. Operating temperature range is 0 to 70°C commercial.

The FTLX1471D3BCV and FTLX1471D3BCL share the same 10GBASE-LR optical design and electrical interface. The distinction is in the EEPROM vendor data written to the module. BCV carries platform-specific identification codes that match particular host vendor whitelists, while BCL is the generic Finisar-branded variant used where MSA-compliant optics are accepted. Choose BCV when the target host validates transceivers against a vendor whitelist; choose BCL for open environments.

Finisar supplied FTLX1471D3BCV sub-variants with additional suffixes targeting specific OEM platform validation requirements. The FTLX1471D3BCV-IT suffix has been associated with Intel-platform variants based on market availability, though Finisar does not publish a public suffix key for this series. Confirm the exact suffix with your hardware vendor's transceiver compatibility documentation before ordering.

EdgeOptic codes the compatible FTLX1471D3BCV with vendor-specific EEPROM data to match Cisco Catalyst, Nexus, and ASR platforms, Juniper QFX, EX, and MX platforms, and other switch vendors that check EEPROM vendor fields. Intel adapter compatibility depends on the specific NIC model and firmware version; contact sales to confirm Intel X520, X710, or E810 compatibility before ordering.

G.652 single-mode fiber has a maximum attenuation of 0.4 dB/km at 1310nm per ITU-T G.652.D. Over a 10 km span, fiber loss consumes up to 4 dB of the 6 dB channel budget. Connector loss runs 0.1 to 0.3 dB per mated LC UPC pair. Inspect LC endfaces per IEC 61300-3-35 before mating.

DDM per SFF-8472 reports TX/RX optical power, laser bias current, temperature, and supply voltage. The module is MSA compliant per SFF-8431 (electrical) and IEEE 802.3ae (optical), with Class 1 laser safety per IEC 60825-1. CE and RoHS certified. Power consumption is under 1 W.

All EdgeOptic modules ship with a lifetime warranty and are tested before dispatch. For volume pricing or platform-specific coding options, contact our sales team.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between FTLX1471D3BCV and FTLX1471D3BCL?

BCV and BCL are both Finisar 10GBASE-LR SFP+ modules with identical optical specs. BCV is the right choice for Cisco, Juniper, and certain Intel hosts that check EEPROM IDs against an internal whitelist. BCL is the generic variant for MSA-compliant environments such as open-source switch platforms and most generic switch ASICs where transceiver validation is not enforced.

What does the -IT suffix on FTLX1471D3BCV-IT mean?

Finisar did not publish a public suffix decoder for the BCV series, but the -IT suffix has been associated with Intel-platform variants based on historical market availability. Intel host adapters (X520, X710, and E810 families) validate installed optics using firmware-level checks that may require specific vendor coding. Confirm compatibility with Intel's adapter documentation before ordering a specific suffix.

Can I use a generic FTLX1471D3BCV on a Cisco or Juniper switch?

The generic FTLX1471D3BCV may not carry the EEPROM identifiers that Cisco and Juniper platform whitelists expect. For Cisco Nexus, Catalyst, and ASR platforms, use a Cisco-coded version. For Juniper QFX, EX, or MX platforms, use a Juniper-coded version. EdgeOptic supplies alternate-coded compatible modules for each target vendor.
