About This Part
The Finisar FTLF1721P1xCL is a high-performance Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) optical transceiver designed for robust long-haul data communication within SONET/SDH networks. This module supports an OC-48 (Optical Carrier Level 48) data rate, equivalent to 2.488 Gigabits per second (Gbps), aligning with STM L-16.1 specifications. Engineered for LR-1 (Long Reach) applications, it typically operates over single-mode fiber (SMF) at a nominal wavelength of 1550 nm, enabling reliable transmission distances of up to 40 kilometers or more, depending on fiber characteristics and link budget. Featuring a duplex LC connector interface, the FTLF1721P1xCL ensures hot-pluggable deployment, facilitating easy integration and maintenance in compatible network equipment while offering low power consumption for operational efficiency. This Finisar SFP transceiver is critical for extending the reach and capacity of metropolitan and core network infrastructures. It is commonly deployed in carrier-grade routers, switches, and optical transport platforms that require high-speed, long-distance connectivity. Telecom operators, internet service providers (ISPs), and large enterprise data centers leverage the FTLF1721P1xCL to establish robust backbone links, interconnect geographically dispersed sites, or upgrade existing network segments to OC-48 speeds. By providing a standardized, modular interface for 2.5 Gbps optical transmission, this transceiver solves the challenge of bridging significant distances with high reliability, offering a cost-effective alternative to more complex or proprietary optical solutions and enabling seamless upgrades from lower-speed interfaces.
