Finisar compatible FTLX6872MNC Description
EdgeOptic's FTLX6872MNC compatible is a Finisar (now Coherent Corp.) coded tunable 10 Gb/s DWDM SFP+ with a limiting APD receiver and a built-in decision circuit. The MNC suffix marks this as the OEM's extended-temperature variant, specified for outdoor cabinets, streetside enclosures, and other uncontrolled-environment deployments where the host platform requires the extended-temperature qualified part number. The module covers the full C-Band tunable range on the ITU 50 GHz grid and matches the FTLX6872MNC EEPROM identifier.
Optical and electrical specifications: DWDM C-Band, ITU 50 GHz grid, channels 17 to 61 (89 channels, 1528.38 to 1564.68 nm) with integrated wavelength locker. Reach 80 km over G.652 single-mode fiber with a 23 dB optical link budget. TX launch power per lane −1 to +4 dBm. RX sensitivity better than −23 dBm. RX overload −6 dBm. Dispersion tolerance 1600 ps/nm. Data rate range 8.5 to 11.32 Gb/s, supporting 8G/10G Fibre Channel, 10G Ethernet, OC-192/STM-64, and the OTN family (ODU2, ODU2e, OTU2, OTU1e, OTU2e, OTU1f, OTU2f). Power consumption 2.0 W at 3.3 V. Operating case temperature 0 to 70 °C (EdgeOptic compatible build). Duplex LC connector, SMF G.652. DOM/DDM per SFF-8472. Compliant with SFF-8431, SFF-8432, and SFF-8690. CE/RoHS, Class 1 laser safety.
Engineers select the MNC suffix when the host platform's transceiver compatibility list specifically calls for the extended-temperature OEM part number, typically for outdoor cabinet installations and harsh-environment routing builds. The limiting APD receiver architecture is shared with the FTLX6872MCC commercial-temperature variant, and is the standard interface for 10GbE switching and routing. EdgeOptic's compatible build for FTLX6872MNC operates at 0 to 70 °C case temperature, which matches the standard commercial-environment operating window. For deployments that explicitly require the OEM's extended-temperature qualification, source the OEM-branded MNC variant directly.
Backed by 15+ years of EdgeOptic compatibility engineering across vendor optical platforms. Made to order with a 2-week lead time, backed by a lifetime warranty. For channel-plan provisioning, host coding requests, or volume quoting, contact our sales team.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Finisar FTLX6871 and FTLX6872 tunable DWDM modules?
FTLX6871 uses a linear APD receiver and is specified for OTN transport and transponder-based DWDM systems where the host line card runs its own clock and data recovery and FEC. FTLX6872 uses a limiting APD receiver with a built-in decision circuit and is the standard choice for 10GbE switching and routing platforms. Both cover the same full C-Band tunable plan and 80 km reach class. The MCC and MNC suffixes within each series encode the OEM-side temperature grade (commercial vs extended). The two series are not drop-in interchangeable, since the host port expects either an analog or a digitized signal depending on the architecture it was designed against.
Is the Finisar FTLX6872MNC still available after the Coherent acquisition?
The FTLX6872MNC remains listed as an active product in the Coherent transceiver portfolio (Coherent Corp. acquired the Finisar product family through the II-VI / Coherent corporate consolidation). Verify current availability and any lifecycle status notices directly with Coherent or your distributor before placing a long-lifecycle order. EdgeOptic ships its FTLX6872MNC compatible as a made-to-order build with a 2-week lead time.
