FTLX1612M3BCL: frequently asked questions
What is the Finisar FTLX1612M3BCL?
The FTLX1612M3BCL is a Finisar XFP transceiver for 10GBASE-ER / OC-192 IR-2 multirate at 10 Gb/s class. Finisar is now part of Coherent Corp. (formerly II-VI), and the part number is unchanged. It is used for 10G Ethernet, 10G Fibre Channel, SONET OC-192 / OTN and DWDM metro / DCI links.
What is the maximum distance of the FTLX1612M3BCL?
The FTLX1612M3BCL is specified for up to 40km over Duplex SMF LC. Long-reach optics may need an attenuator on short links; we can advise based on your link loss.
What is the optical power budget of the FTLX1612M3BCL?
Per the Finisar family datasheet, the FTLX1612M3BCL transmits −1 to +2 dBm and has a receiver sensitivity of −16 dBm @9.95–10.7 Gb/s; −15 dBm @11.1–11.3 Gb/s. Maximum receiver input is −1 dBm.
Does the FTLX1612M3BCL support DDM / digital diagnostics?
Yes. Digital diagnostics via 2-wire serial interface. Your switch can read live temperature, voltage, laser bias and Tx/Rx power.
Which fiber and connector does the FTLX1612M3BCL use?
The FTLX1612M3BCL works at 1550nm over Duplex SMF LC. Both ends of a link must use the same optical standard.
Will the FTLX1612M3BCL work in my Cisco, Juniper, Arista or HPE switch?
The FTLX1612M3BCL follows the XFP 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.
FTLX1612M3BCL vs FTLX1612M3BTL: what is the difference?
Both are in Finisar's FTLX1612 family. They differ in temperature grade (commercial vs industrial). Pick the variant that matches your temperature, latch and wavelength needs.
What temperature range is the FTLX1612M3BCL rated for?
The FTLX1612M3BCL is a commercial-temperature part. Choose an industrial (T) variant for outdoor or uncontrolled sites.
What does the FTLX1612M3BCL part number mean?
The FTLX prefix marks Finisar's 10G family (SFP+, XFP, X2, XENPAK). The C letter in the suffix usually marks the commercial temperature grade. The remaining characters identify the optical design and build variant.
Is your FTLX1612M3BCL 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 FTLX1612M3BCL price in India and how do I order?
The Finisar FTLX1612M3BCL 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 FTLX1612M3BCL need?
It runs from Vcc5 4.75–5.25 V; Vcc3 3.13–3.45 V with power dissipation of < 3.5 W.
