Fortinet FN-TRAN-QSFP28-SR 100G QSFP28 SR 100 m | QSFP28, Enterprise

Maintain 100 GbE connectivity across short-reach fiber links with the Fortinet FN-TRAN-QSFP28-SR transceiver module. Designed for QSFP28 ports, it supports 100 Gbps Ethernet over multimode fiber at distances up to 100 m, making it a practical fit for rack-to-rack and row-to-row connections in dense switching environments. This module is a strong choice when you need consistent optical performance without overbuying reach you will not use. Short-range optics help keep deployment focused on the common data-center distances where cost, port density, and signal integrity all matter. For teams standardizing on Fortinet networking hardware, it provides a direct-fit transceiver option for high-speed uplinks and fabric expansion. Use it where 100 GbE bandwidth must stay available for storage traffic, virtualization clusters, or east-west application flows. The compact QSFP28 form factor supports modern high-port-count designs, while the short-range specification helps align optics spend with the actual physical layout of the network. It is the kind of component that earns its place in environments where every port, patch panel, and meter of fiber is planned with intent.
