About This Part
The Finisar FTLX1612M3BTL is a high-performance, industrial-temperature XFP (10 Gigabit Small Form-Factor Pluggable) optical transceiver designed for robust long-reach data transmission. As part of Finisar's esteemed XFP product family, this module provides multirate support for 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GBASE-ER) and OC-192 IR-2 SONET/SDH applications, making it highly versatile for diverse networking environments. It operates at a nominal data rate of 9.95 Gbps to 11.1 Gbps, facilitating seamless integration into both Ethernet and legacy telecom infrastructures. The FTLX1612M3BTL is engineered to transmit optical signals over single-mode fiber for distances up to 40 kilometers, typically utilizing a long-reach wavelength around 1550 nm. Its industrial temperature rating ensures reliable operation in demanding environments ranging from -40°C to +85°C, a critical specification for outdoor deployments, remote sites, or unconditioned spaces where standard commercial-grade transceivers would fail. This Finisar module adheres to the XFP MSA (Multi-Source Agreement) for interoperability and hot-pluggable functionality. The Part Number FTLX1612M3BTL is a critical component for extending high-speed optical links in metropolitan area networks (MANs), enterprise backbone networks, and inter-data center connectivity. It is commonly deployed in core routers, aggregation switches, and DWDM (Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing) systems where 10 Gbps long-haul connectivity is essential. Telecommunications operators, internet service providers (ISPs), and large-scale data center providers leverage this transceiver to establish reliable point-to-point links, connect remote network nodes, or upgrade existing infrastructure to 10G speeds without requiring costly fiber plant overhauls. Its 40km reach and industrial temperature resilience solve the challenge of deploying high-bandwidth services in geographically dispersed or environmentally harsh locations, providing a robust upgrade path from lower-speed or shorter-reach solutions, ensuring network stability and performance across extended distances. For B2B clients seeking cost-effective infrastructure solutions, Revo Distribution Limited offers used and refurbished units of the Finisar FTLX1612M3BTL. Acquiring these high-quality, pre-owned transceivers from Revo enables telecom operators and data centre providers to expand or upgrade their networks efficiently, significantly reducing capital expenditure compared to purchasing new equipment. Each unit undergoes rigorous testing to ensure it meets original performance specifications, providing the reliability and functionality expected from Finisar products. By supplying refurbished equipment, Revo extends the lifecycle of existing infrastructure, promoting sustainable practices within the industry. This approach allows businesses to maintain high network performance and capacity while optimizing their budget, ensuring that critical 10G connectivity solutions remain accessible and affordable for ongoing network evolution and expansion projects.
