Description

The FN-TRAN-SFP+BD27-BCC is a drop-in compatible replacement for the Fortinet FN-TRAN-SFP+BD27. This BiDi SFP+ transceiver provides plug-and-play compatibility with Fortinet switches and routers equipped with SFP+ slots. - Compliant with IEEE 802.3ae 10G-Base-LR/LW, ensuring full interoperability with standards-based 10G infrastructure - SFP+ form factor with 10.3 Gbps data rate over single-mode fibre using bidirectional WDM technology - Transmits at 1270nm and receives at 1330nm via simplex LC connector, doubling fibre capacity on a single strand - Supports up to 30km reach over OS2 single-mode fibre per Fortinet specifications - Digital optical monitoring (DOM) support for real-time diagnostics including temperature, voltage, bias current, and optical power levels - Must be paired with complementary wavelength transceiver FN-TRAN-SFP+BD33 (1330nm TX / 1270nm RX) on opposite end

Features

• IEEE 802.3ae compliance guarantees standards-based interoperability with any 10G Ethernet switch, router, or NIC supporting 10GBASE-LR/LW over single-mode fibre
• Bidirectional WDM architecture transmits and receives on a single fibre strand using discrete wavelengths (1270nm up / 1330nm down), halving fibre infrastructure requirements compared to duplex LC transceivers
• Must be deployed in wavelength-matched pairs: this upstream (U) transceiver connects only to a downstream (D) transceiver with complementary 1330nm TX / 1270nm RX specification such as FN-TRAN-SFP+BD33
• Extended industrial temperature rating (-5°C to 85°C) allows deployment in harsh environments including outdoor enclosures, industrial control networks, and remote radio units
• Digital diagnostics interface per SFF-8472 provides real-time monitoring of transmit power, receive power, temperature, laser bias current, and supply voltage for proactive link health management
• Low power consumption under 1W enables high-density SFP+ port population without thermal constraints in 1RU switches and routers
• Hot-swappable with automatic link negotiation for zero-downtime installation and field replacement

FAQs

Q: Will this work in place of the Fortinet FN-TRAN-SFP+BD27?
A: Yes. This transceiver is coded to the FN-TRAN-SFP+BD27 specification with matching form factor (SFP+), data rate (10.3 Gbps), wavelength (1270nm TX / 1330nm RX), and IEEE 802.3ae standard compliance. It is plug-and-play compatible in Fortinet equipment with SFP+ slots and will initialize identically to the OEM part.

Q: Which Fortinet platforms support this transceiver?
A: This transceiver is compatible with Fortinet switches, routers, and security appliances equipped with SFP+ ports supporting 10G Ethernet. Specific platform compatibility depends on the device having an SFP+ slot rated for 10GBASE standards and single-mode fibre optics. Consult your Fortinet device datasheet to confirm SFP+ slot availability.

Q: Why must this be used with a complementary wavelength transceiver?
A: BiDi transceivers use wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) to transmit and receive on the same fibre. This upstream (U) module transmits 1270nm and receives 1330nm. The far end must use a downstream (D) module (such as FN-TRAN-SFP+BD33) that transmits 1330nm and receives 1270nm. Pairing two upstream or two downstream transceivers will result in no optical signal reception and link failure.

Q: What fibre type and quality are required for 30km reach?
A: This transceiver requires OS2-grade single-mode fibre (9/125 micron) with low attenuation (typically 0.4 dB/km at 1310nm). Achieving the full 30km distance depends on total link loss including fibre attenuation, splice loss, connector loss, and any inline components. Calculate your link budget to ensure received optical power remains above the receiver sensitivity threshold specified in the datasheet.

Q: Can I access DOM parameters to monitor link health?
A: Yes. This transceiver supports digital diagnostics monitoring per SFF-8472. You can retrieve real-time values for transmit optical power, receive optical power, module temperature, laser bias current, and supply voltage via the I2C interface. Most managed switches and network operating systems expose these parameters through CLI commands or management interfaces for proactive troubleshooting and performance monitoring.
