How to use

Install the SFP28 transceiver into a compatible SFP28 port on your switch, router or server while the device is powered on or off, following the host equipment manufacturer’s instructions for hot-plug modules. Connect LC duplex multimode fibre patch cords to the module ensuring correct transmit/receive orientation. Verify link status and configure the port for 25G operation through the network device management interface. Monitor signal and error counters after installation to confirm stable operation.

Recommendations

Use OM3 or OM4 multimode fibre and quality LC duplex patch cords for predictable short-reach performance. Ensure transceiver firmware and host device port settings are compatible with 25G SFP28 optics. Keep fibre connectors clean and use dust caps when modules are not in use. For extended troubleshooting, consult link diagnostics in the host device and test with known-good cables and ports.
