Tripp Lite N286-25G-SRS-G SFP28 Transceiver 25G 850nm

Product Description

The TRIPP LITE N286-25G-SRS-G is a 25G SFP28 fiber optic transceiver designed for high-speed data center and enterprise network infrastructure. Operating at 850nm wavelength with a maximum transmission distance of 100 meters over multimode fiber, this transceiver delivers 25 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity in a compact SFP28 form factor. It is intended for installation by network technicians and data center engineers working with spine-leaf architectures, server interconnects, and high-density switching environments where 25GbE links are required.

This transceiver is suited for short-reach multimode fiber runs in data centers, enterprise core switching, and high-performance computing environments. The 100-meter reach over OM4 or compatible multimode fiber makes it appropriate for top-of-rack to end-of-row switch connections and server-to-switch uplinks. It installs in any SFP28-compatible port on supported switches, NICs, and host bus adapters without requiring additional hardware beyond a compatible fiber patch cable.

Key Features

• 25G SFP28 form factor for high-density 25 Gigabit Ethernet deployments
• 850nm VCSEL wavelength optimized for multimode fiber operation
• Up to 100-meter reach suitable for intra-rack and inter-rack data center cabling
• Hot-swappable design allows replacement without powering down host equipment
• Compact SFP28 housing fits high-port-density switches and network interface cards

Compatibility

Designed as an SFP28 form-factor transceiver for use in 25GbE-capable switches, routers, and network interface cards that accept standard SFP28 modules. Verify host equipment compatibility before installation.

Installation Notes

Network technicians should verify that the host switch or NIC port is configured for 25GbE operation before inserting the transceiver. The SFP28 module is hot-swappable, but follow the host device manufacturer guidelines for safe insertion and removal. Use an appropriate LC duplex multimode fiber patch cable rated for the intended distance. Do not expose the optical port to dust or debris when the module is not connected; use the included dust cap when the port is unmated.
