Port extension module Lancom UF Extension Module 2x 40G QSFP+ (UF-760), 40 Gbit/s, green/grey

The LANCOM UF Extension Module 2x 40G QSFP+ (UF-760) provides two high-speed 40 Gbps QSFP+ ports to expand LANCOM R&S® Unified Firewalls. It lets you add fiber or copper connectivity depending on the SFP/SFP+ modules used and adapts the firewall's physical interfaces to changing network requirements.

Advantages

This extension module offers two 40G QSFP+ ports for high-bandwidth uplinks and interconnects. It is designed for flexible expansion of LANCOM Unified Firewalls and supports use with compatible transceiver modules, enabling tested interoperability and reliable connections. The module’s compact form factor and standardized QSFP+ interface simplify integration into existing rack-mounted firewall appliances.

Suitable for

When it may not be suitable

This module is intended for use with LANCOM R&S Unified Firewalls that provide a compatible UF extension slot; it is not a standalone switch or router. If your network only requires 1G or 10G connectivity and has no plans to move to 25/40G, the 40G QSFP+ module may be excessive. Also, ensure compatible QSFP+ transceivers or breakout cables are available for your specific use case.

Key specifications

How to use

Insert the UF-760 module into a compatible UF extension slot on a LANCOM R&S Unified Firewall according to the device manual. Install suitable QSFP+ transceivers or QSFP+ breakout cables as required by your fiber or copper infrastructure. Configure the firewall’s interface settings in the device management console to enable and manage the new ports, and verify link status and throughput after installation.

What to consider before purchase

Recommendations

Use this module for uplinks or aggregation in environments planning or already operating at 25/40G. Pair it with LANCOM-tested SFP/QSFP transceivers for verified compatibility and stable operation; monitor port statistics after deployment to ensure expected throughput and link stability.
