Fortinet compatible FG-TRAN-SFP28-LR Description

EdgeOptic's FG-TRAN-SFP28-LR compatible is a Fortinet-coded dual-rate version of the EdgeOptic 25G-SFP28-10 multi-vendor 25GBASE-LR transceiver. It carries the EEPROM data a FortiGate or FortiSwitch expects from a Fortinet FG-TRAN-SFP28-LR module, so the host reads the transceiver as a recognized part. The optic operates at either 10G Ethernet (10.31 Gbps) or 25G Ethernet (25.78 Gbps) per IEEE 802.3cc, which lets a single part number cover both rate classes during a phased upgrade from 10G to 25G uplinks.

The module transmits and receives at 1310 nm over duplex single-mode fiber with a pair of LC connectors, reaching 10 km. Launch power ranges from a minimum of −7 dBm to a maximum of +2 dBm, receiver sensitivity is rated at −12 dBm, and receiver overload sits at +3 dBm. The 5 dB average link budget covers the loss of a standard 10 km single-mode span with margin for connectors and splices. Maximum power draw is 1.2 W, and the module runs across a 0 to 70 °C commercial temperature range.

Digital optical monitoring per SFF-8472 reports temperature, supply voltage, laser bias, and transmit and receive optical power, so FortiOS shows live diagnostics for the link. The optic has no built-in FEC; on 25G links, RS-FEC is handled by the host port per IEEE 802.3cc, which matches the behavior of the Fortinet original. Confirm the fiber plant is single-mode end to end, since this LR optic will not link over multimode fiber.

The compatible matches the SFP28 MSA along with SFF-8431, SFF-8432, and SFF-8472, and carries CE and RoHS marking with Class 1 laser safety. It works in FortiGate firewalls and FortiSwitch units that provide SFP28 ports. For deployments that mix this optic with other vendor switches, the same EdgeOptic 25G-SFP28-10 transceiver is available under multiple vendor codes, which keeps one spare part valid across a mixed estate.

Backed by 15+ years of EdgeOptic compatibility engineering across vendor optical platforms, the FG-TRAN-SFP28-LR compatible ships next business day from EU stock with a lifetime warranty.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will the FG-TRAN-SFP28-LR compatible trigger a 'transceiver not certified by Fortinet' warning on a FortiGate?

The EdgeOptic FG-TRAN-SFP28-LR compatible is coded to the FG-TRAN-SFP28-LR EEPROM profile, so a FortiGate identifies it as the expected part. FortiOS displays an advisory message for transceivers it does not recognize as Fortinet-certified, but that message never blocks the port, the link comes up and passes traffic either way. If the FortiOS release on a given appliance flags the optic, the link still operates, and you can contact our sales team to confirm coding against the target FortiOS version.
