Description
The Fortinet FN‑TRAN‑SX is a 1 Gbps SFP (Small Form‑factor Pluggable) fiber optic transceiver module designed for use with Fortinet network devices, including FortiSwitch and FortiGate units equipped with SFP ports. This module supports the 1000BASE‑SX standard, enabling high‑speed gigabit Ethernet connections over multimode fiber (MMF) with an 850 nm wavelength, making it ideal for short‑range fiber links in data center, campus, and enterprise environments.
The FN‑TRAN‑SX features a Duplex LC connector and complies with IEEE 802.3z (1000BASE‑SX) standards for compatibility and reliable operation. With hot‑pluggable capability, it allows network administrators to install or replace the transceiver without powering down equipment, minimizing downtime and simplifying maintenance. Its robust design supports link distances up to 550 m over OM2/OM3 multimode fiber, offering flexibility for a range of fiber‑backbone or switch‑to‑switch connections.
Key Features:
1000BASE‑SX gigabit fiber support for high‑speed connections over MMF
Duplex LC connector for standard fiber interface
Hot‑swappable SFP module for easy installation and replacement
Supports link distances up to 550 m over multimode fiber (OM2/OM3)
Compliant with IEEE 802.3z (1000Base‑SX) standard for broad compatibility
Ideal for enterprise, campus, and data center short‑range fiber connections
