Product Features
Technical Overview
Built to the SFP28 form factor, this transceiver operates on the 25GBase-LR standard, delivering 25 Gbps full-duplex data rates over single-mode fiber optic cabling. The LR (Long Reach) specification supports link distances suitable for campus and data center interconnects.
The module interfaces via a single 25GBase-LR network port, providing a direct fiber uplink or backbone connection. It leverages 25 Gigabit Ethernet technology, which offers a balanced upgrade path from 10GbE, delivering increased bandwidth while maintaining power efficiency and a familiar management footprint.
Key Product Advantages
This transceiver enables network architects to scale bandwidth economically without overhauling core infrastructure. Its design prioritizes interoperability, performance, and seamless integration within Fortinet's security-driven networking ecosystem.
Fortinet Ecosystem Integration
Coded and validated for the FortiGate 2600F Series, ensuring reliable operation and full management visibility within FortiOS. This eliminates compatibility concerns and supports unified threat management across high-speed links.
- Validated for FG-2600F/FG-2601F
- Managed via FortiOS
High-Speed Optical Performance
Delivers 25 Gbps throughput over single-mode fiber, supporting bandwidth-intensive applications and future-proofing network edge and aggregation layers. The optical interface provides immunity to EMI and supports longer distances compared to copper alternatives.
- 25GbE full-duplex
- Extended reach over fiber
- Low signal degradation
Deployment / Use Cases
Deploy this SFP28 module in scenarios requiring secure, high-speed interconnection between network segments. It is ideal for linking FortiGate firewalls to core switches, establishing data center spine-leaf connections, or providing high-bandwidth uplinks for access layer aggregation.
Common use cases include securing 25GbE links between security zones, building low-latency inter-building fiber links, and upgrading existing 10GbE fiber infrastructure to higher density without replacing the fiber plant. Its compatibility with the FortiGate 2600F Series makes it a key component in building high-performance secured network perimeters.

FAQ
What is the speed and interface type of this SFP28 module?
This Fortinet transceiver operates at 25 Gigabits per second (25 Gbps) using the 25GBase-LR Ethernet standard. It features a single optical port designed for LC duplex connectors over single-mode fiber, providing a full-duplex, high-bandwidth link for data networking applications.
Which Fortinet devices is this transceiver compatible with?
The FN-TRAN-SFP28-LR is specifically coded and validated for compatibility with the Fortinet FortiGate 2600F Series next-generation firewalls, including the FG-2600F and FG-2601F models. It is designed to integrate seamlessly with FortiOS for reliable, managed high-speed security interfaces.
What type of fiber cable should I use with this module?
This module requires single-mode fiber optic cabling with LC connectors to operate correctly. The 25GBase-LR standard is optimized for single-mode fiber, which supports longer distance transmissions compared to multimode fiber, making it suitable for campus and data center interconnects.
Does this SFP28 module support digital diagnostics monitoring (DDM/DOM)?
While the source specifications do not explicitly list DDM/DOM features, SFP28 modules typically support basic digital diagnostics for monitoring parameters like temperature, voltage, and optical power. For confirmation of advanced monitoring capabilities, refer to the Fortinet datasheet or compatibility guide.
