Extreme Networks 25GBASE-SR SFP28 Transceiver

The Extreme Networks 25GBASE-SR SFP28 Transceiver is a short-reach multimode optical module engineered for high-speed data center connectivity. Compliant with IEEE 802.3by standards, it delivers 25 Gbps throughput over OM3/OM4 multimode fiber cabling at distances up to 100 meters, making it ideal for intra-rack and inter-rack server connections within modern data centers.

This transceiver is optimized for deployment on Extreme Networks X590, X695, and SLX platform switches, which serve as backbone infrastructure for enterprise data center refresh initiatives. The module utilizes VCSEL-based transmission technology, enabling cost-effective short-reach deployment without requiring expensive single-mode infrastructure.

Designed for high-volume procurement environments, the 25GB-SR-SFP28 supports enterprise migration strategies from legacy 10GbE to contemporary 25GbE server connectivity standards. Its form factor enables dense port utilization across modern switch architectures in virtualized and containerized workload environments.

Ideal for

• Server-to-switch connectivity upgrade in data center refresh cycles transitioning from 10GbE to 25GbE
• High-density intra-rack cabling for virtualization platforms and hyperconverged infrastructure
• Top-of-rack (ToR) switch interconnection within multi-tier data center network architectures
• East-west traffic optimization in containerized and Kubernetes cluster deployments
• Storage area network (SAN) fabric upgrade for NVMe-over-Fabrics (NVMe-oF) implementations
• High-performance computing (HPC) cluster interconnect for scientific and research workloads
