Description

The FN-TRAN-SFP-1BD40-BCC is a drop-in compatible replacement for the Fortinet FN-TRAN-SFP-1BD40. This BiDi SFP transceiver operates in systems with SFP or SFP+ slots and is designed for harsh environments with an industrial temperature range of -40°C to 85°C. - 1000BASE-BX40-D standard compliance guarantees interoperability with MSA-compliant network equipment - BiDi single-fibre operation: transmits at 1490nm and receives at 1310nm over a single LC simplex connector, maximising fibre infrastructure efficiency - Reaches 40km over single-mode fibre, providing long-haul Gigabit Ethernet connectivity for enterprise and telecom networks - DOM support for real-time monitoring of optical power, temperature, and voltage parameters - Pairs with FN-TRAN-SFP-1BU40 (complementary 1310nm TX / 1490nm RX wavelengths) for bidirectional link operation - Hot-swappable SFP form factor allows installation without disrupting network operation

Features

• BiDi technology transmits and receives on different wavelengths over a single fibre strand, halving fibre infrastructure requirements compared to duplex transceivers while maintaining full gigabit throughput
• 1000BASE-BX40-D compliance ensures interoperability with MSA-compliant SFP hosts; the -D variant transmits at 1490nm and receives at 1310nm, requiring pairing with a complementary -U transceiver (such as FN-TRAN-SFP-1BU40) at the opposite end
• Industrial temperature rating from -40°C to 85°C supports deployment in outdoor cabinets, factory automation, transportation infrastructure, and other harsh environments where commercial-grade optics cannot operate
• Digital optical monitoring provides real-time access to transmit power, receive power, supply voltage, laser bias current, and module temperature for proactive fault detection and link budget analysis
• Hot-swappable SFP form factor with single LC simplex connector simplifies installation, reduces cabling complexity, and allows field replacement without powering down the host system
• 40km reach over ITU-T G.652 single-mode fibre enables metro aggregation, campus backbone extension, and point-to-point links where distances exceed multi-mode or shorter-reach single-mode capability

FAQs

Q: Will this work in place of the Fortinet FN-TRAN-SFP-1BD40?
A: Yes. This transceiver replicates the Fortinet FN-TRAN-SFP-1BD40 specification: SFP form factor, 1.25 Gbps data rate, 1000BASE-BX40-D standard, 1490nm TX / 1310nm RX wavelengths, 40km reach over single-mode fibre, and -40°C to 85°C industrial temperature range. It is plug-and-play compatible with Fortinet systems featuring SFP or SFP+ slots.

Q: Which Fortinet platforms support this transceiver?
A: The Fortinet datasheet specifies compatibility with systems featuring SFP or SFP+ slots, including FortiSwitch and FortiGate models with those port types. The transceiver has been lab-tested in Sydney for Fortinet compatibility. Refer to your platform's transceiver support matrix to confirm SFP slot compatibility for Gigabit Ethernet applications.

Q: What is the complementary transceiver required for the opposite end of the link?
A: This is a 1000BASE-BX40-D transceiver (1490nm TX / 1310nm RX). The far end requires a 1000BASE-BX40-U transceiver with complementary wavelengths (1310nm TX / 1490nm RX), such as the FN-TRAN-SFP-1BU40-BCC or Fortinet FN-TRAN-SFP-1BU40. Mixing D and U variants is mandatory for BiDi links; using two D or two U transceivers will prevent link establishment.

Q: What fibre type and link budget does this transceiver require for 40km operation?
A: This transceiver requires ITU-T G.652 single-mode fibre as specified by IEEE 802.3z. The 40km rating assumes clean connectors, low insertion loss, and minimal dispersion. Actual reach depends on fibre quality, splice loss, and connector attenuation. When used over distances below 10km, an inline attenuator may be required to prevent receiver saturation.

Q: Can this transceiver be used in FortiSwitch models that support both 1G and 2.5G operation?
A: Yes, but the transceiver operates at 1.25 Gbps fixed rate (Gigabit Ethernet). In FortiSwitch models that support multi-rate SFP operation, the port will autonegotiate or must be configured to 1G speed. The transceiver does not support 2.5GBASE operation; for that use case, a dedicated SFP module such as FN-TRAN-SFP2-LX is required.

Tested on real vendor hardware in Sydney

Every Blue Cable Co transceiver is coded for your platform and tested in our Sydney test rack on real vendor switches and firewalls before it ships. We check it is recognised and links up the same way the OEM optic does, so you don't find an "unsupported transceiver" error after it's installed.

Brands tested: Cisco, Meraki, Arista, Aruba, HPE, Juniper, Dell, Fortinet, Palo Alto, Check Point, Sophos, Moxa and NVIDIA. Speeds up to 100Gb.
