Palo Alto Networks compatible PAN-SFP-PLUS-SR Description
EdgeOptic's PAN-SFP-PLUS-SR compatible is a Palo Alto Networks-coded version of the EdgeOptic 10G-SFP-300 multi-vendor 10GBASE-SR SFP+ transceiver. The PAN- prefix in Palo Alto Networks accessory naming identifies optics for PAN-OS firewalls. The -SR suffix specifies 850 nm multimode short-reach operation (300 m OM3 / 400 m OM4); this is distinct from PAN-SFP-PLUS-LR, which is the 1310 nm single-mode long-reach SKU and is not interchangeable with PAN-SFP-PLUS-SR at the optical layer.
Optical specs follow the 10G-SFP-300 root: 850 nm transmit and receive, 20 nm bandwidth (840 to 860 nm), 300 m over OM3 and 400 m over OM4 / OM5 multimode fiber, duplex LC/UPC connector, 6.1 dB average link budget. Transmit power is −5 to 0 dBm, receiver sensitivity is −11.1 dBm, and receiver overload is 0 dBm. The transmitter is a VCSEL laser, the receiver a PIN photodiode, and DOM/DDM is supported per SFF-8472 for monitoring TX bias, optical power, voltage and case temperature on the firewall console. Standard SFP+ MSA SFF-8432 mechanical conformance and +3.3 V single-supply operation match the Palo Alto SFP+ slot mechanical and electrical envelope.
Standard target hosts are Palo Alto Networks next-generation firewalls with SFP+ slots: PA-3200 series, PA-5200 series, and PA-7000 series chassis. Newer PA-3400 and PA-5450 platforms also use SFP+ ports but the specific PAN-SFP-PLUS-SR support line varies by PAN-OS release; verify against Palo Alto Networks' transceiver compatibility documentation before deployment. The EdgeOptic compatible carries Palo Alto Networks-recognized vendor identification so the optic appears as a recognized SFP+ on PAN-OS. Operating temperature is 0 to 70 °C commercial.
Backed by 15+ years of EdgeOptic compatibility engineering across vendor optical platforms. Ships next business day from EU stock with a lifetime warranty.

Frequently Asked Questions
If my Palo Alto Networks firewall link runs longer than 400 m, can I use PAN-SFP-PLUS-SR, or do I need PAN-SFP-PLUS-LR?
Use PAN-SFP-PLUS-LR. PAN-SFP-PLUS-SR is an 850 nm multimode part rated for 300 m on OM3 and 400 m on OM4 / OM5; running it past those reach limits will not produce a stable link. PAN-SFP-PLUS-LR is the 1310 nm single-mode long-reach SKU intended for spans up to 10 km on OS2 single-mode fiber. The two parts are not interchangeable: SR optics will not couple efficiently into single-mode fiber, and LR optics will not match the multimode-fiber budget on a short-reach link. Match the SFP+ optic to the fiber type and reach on both ends of the link.
