- Duplex LC optical connection
- Single 3.3V power supply
- Interoperable with equivalent SFP and SFP+ optical transceivers
FTE8508N1LCN: frequently asked questions
What is the Finisar FTE8508N1LCN?
The FTE8508N1LCN is a Finisar Endurance compact (board-mount) transceiver for 8x/4x/2x FC rate-select at 8.5 Gb/s. Finisar is now part of Coherent Corp. (formerly II-VI), and the part number is unchanged. It is used for 8G Fibre Channel storage networks.
What is the maximum distance of the FTE8508N1LCN?
The FTE8508N1LCN is specified for up to SR (MMF) over Duplex MMF LC. Long-reach optics may need an attenuator on short links; we can advise based on your link loss.
Which fiber and connector does the FTE8508N1LCN use?
The FTE8508N1LCN works at 850nm over Duplex MMF LC. Both ends of a link must use the same optical standard.
Does the FTE8508N1LCN support DDM / digital diagnostics?
Yes. Built-in digital diagnostic functions. Your switch can read live temperature, voltage, laser bias and Tx/Rx power.
Will the FTE8508N1LCN work in my Cisco, Juniper, Arista or HPE switch?
The FTE8508N1LCN follows the Endurance compact MSA, so it fits any matching port. It carries Finisar's own EEPROM programming; switches that check the module vendor may need a configuration setting or a vendor-branded optic. Send us your switch model and we confirm before dispatch.
What temperature range is the FTE8508N1LCN rated for?
The FTE8508N1LCN is a commercial-temperature part. Choose an industrial (T) variant for outdoor or uncontrolled sites.
What does the FTE8508N1LCN part number mean?
The FTE prefix marks Finisar's Endurance compact board-mount family. The C letter in the suffix usually marks the commercial temperature grade. The remaining characters identify the optical design and build variant.
Is your FTE8508N1LCN genuine Finisar?
Yes. Next Gen Networks supplies original Finisar / Coherent modules, not third-party lookalikes or grey-market stock, and shares serial numbers on request.
What is the FTE8508N1LCN price in India and how do I order?
The Finisar FTE8508N1LCN price in India depends on quantity, delivery city and current stock. Next Gen Networks supplies it with a GST invoice (input tax credit ready) and pan-India dispatch from New Delhi. Send the part number, quantity and delivery city on WhatsApp +91-7827955775 or email Sales@nextgennetworks.in for a GST quote.
What power does the FTE8508N1LCN need?
It runs from 3.3 V with power dissipation of < 0.6 W (supply current max 180 mA).
