25G Fronthaul LR SFP28 Compatible Transceiver Description
Our EDGEOPTIC 25GFH-SFP28-10 is a multi-vendor compatible 25G Fronthaul LR SFP28 dual-fiber optical module designed for medium-distance mobile fronthaul applications in 5G and LTE network deployments. Operating over single-mode fiber infrastructure, this transceiver enables reliable high-speed connectivity up to 10 kilometers between baseband units and remote radio heads in distributed and centralized radio access network architectures.
The 25GFH-SFP28-10 module operates at 1310nm wavelength for both transmission and reception, supporting data rates from 8.5 to 28.1 Gbps. This multi-rate capability enables compatibility with various CPRI (Common Public Radio Interface) options including CPRI Option 7 at 9.830 Gbps, Option 8 at 10.138 Gbps, Option 9 at 12.165 Gbps, and Option 10 at 24.33 Gbps. The transceiver supports host-based Forward Error Correction for enhanced signal integrity across extended fronthaul distances.
Our 25G Fronthaul LR SFP28 transceiver utilizes DML (Directly Modulated Laser) technology for transmission and PIN photodiode for signal reception. The module ensures an 8.3 dB guaranteed optical link budget, enabling reliable transmission over 10 kilometers of single-mode fiber. The transmitter operates within a wavelength bandwidth of 40nm with launch power ranging from -5 dBm to 2 dBm. The receiver sensitivity spans from -13 dBm to 2 dBm with overload protection at 3 dBm.
The 25GFH-SFP28-10 compatible 25G Fronthaul LR module is a hot-pluggable SFP28 transceiver featuring duplex LC/UPC connectors as the optical interface. The electrical interface conforms to SFF-8431, SFF-8432, and SFP28 MSA (Multi-Source Agreement) specifications, ensuring compatibility with standard SFP28 host systems across multiple vendor equipment platforms. Our 25G Fronthaul LR SFP28 transceiver can be programmed for compatibility with various network equipment manufacturers supporting fronthaul infrastructure.
The module incorporates DDM/DOM (Digital Diagnostic Monitoring) functionality providing real-time operational parameters including transmitted and received optical power levels, module temperature, bias current, and supply voltage. This diagnostic data is accessible via SFF-8472 compliant EEPROM interface, enabling continuous monitoring of transceiver health in mission-critical mobile network environments. Maximum power consumption is 1.2W.
The transceiver operates within a commercial temperature range of 0 to 70°C, suitable for controlled indoor installations typical of central office environments. Standards compliance includes 25GBASE-LR and IEEE 802.3cc specifications. The module is CE marked and RoHS compliant, meeting environmental and regulatory requirements.
Typical applications include metro-scale 5G fronthaul connections, C-RAN (Centralized Radio Access Network) architectures, inter-building campus fronthaul links, and mobile network infrastructure deployments requiring single-mode fiber connectivity.
Because our focus is providing top quality service, we perform comprehensive quality checks before delivery of our products. As a result, we conduct optical parameter measurements, connector cleanliness tests, and SFP28 transceiver EEPROM memory data validation tests to ensure reliable operation in your fronthaul network.
