Support higher-speed uplinks with a 25GBASE-LR SFP28 transceiver designed for single-mode fiber deployments. This AddOn Networks module uses an LC duplex connector and is built for Extreme Networks compatibility, making it a practical fit for data center aggregation, campus backbones, and other links where 25 GbE reach matters. The LR specification is the right choice when short-reach optics are not enough and you need dependable transport over longer distances. It keeps the deployment simple: one compact SFP28 module, standards-based Ethernet signaling, and the reach needed to connect switches across rows, closets, or building spans. For teams balancing performance and procurement discipline, TAA compliance adds a clear sourcing advantage. Compared with lower-speed optics, this module gives you more headroom for uplinks, storage traffic, and east-west growth without changing the physical footprint at the switch. Compared with proprietary alternatives, it offers a compatible path that helps control cost while preserving the operational characteristics infrastructure teams expect from production optics.
