Finisar · Optical Transceivers & SFP

Finisar optical transceivers and pluggable optics

Finisar Corporation was a Sunnyvale, California-based manufacturer of optical subsystems and transceivers, and one of the largest independent suppliers of pluggable optics to the wider telecom and datacom industry rather than a builder of its own branded network systems. II-VI Incorporated acquired Finisar in September 2019, and II-VI itself was renamed Coherent Corp. in 2022 following its acquisition of Coherent, Inc. Because Finisar built optics to open standards (SFP, SFP+) rather than proprietary platforms, its FTLF-series modules are widely used as interoperable, vendor-agnostic pluggables across many network vendors' equipment rather than only Finisar-branded systems. The modules we carry cover the FTLX and FTLF 10G and 1G Ethernet optics most requested by part number, alongside Fibre Channel and Gigabit Ethernet SFP/SFP+ optics and a 6G SFP+ built for CPRI/OBSAI wireless fronthaul links.

How to read these part numbers

Finisar's FTLF part-number prefix is followed by a wavelength/technology code (for example 85 for 850nm multimode, 13 for 1310nm single-mode) and a rate/application suffix. The FTLF8526P3BNL in this stock is a 6.1Gbit/s, 850nm, 300m SFP+ built for CPRI/OBSAI mobile fronthaul links rather than general datacom use; the FTLF1318P2BTL is a standard 1000BASE-LX Gigabit SFP at 1310nm over 10km single-mode fiber. Where a source row gave only a generic "SFP" description with no further detail, we have listed it as such rather than guess at a rate or wavelength we cannot confirm.

Ordering notes

Give the exact FTLF part number where you have it — Finisar's optics differ in wavelength, distance and application (general datacom vs. CPRI/OBSAI fronthaul) within similar-looking part families. Condition is stated per quotation as refurbished or used-tested. CRS PLUS is an independent broker and is not a qualified Finisar, II-VI or Coherent Corp. distributor or partner. Hardware only; any host-system coding or locking is a matter between the buyer and their platform vendor. Destination type approval and import permits (CST/SABER, TDRA, ICASA, CA, CMC, ARPCE) are the buyer's responsibility and we will say so on the quotation.

Lifecycle and availability

Finisar was acquired by II-VI Incorporated in 2019; II-VI was renamed Coherent Corp. in 2022 after its acquisition of Coherent, Inc. Legacy Finisar-branded (FTLF-prefixed) part numbers remain in service across many networks and are supplied here as refurbished or used-tested stock.

Equipment condition

New — factory-sealed, supplied through the manufacturer's own channel or a qualified distributor, with full manufacturer warranty.

New surplus — unused factory stock, original packaging where available, sourced from decommissioned projects or distributor inventory. Manufacturer warranty may have lapsed; CRS PLUS warranty applies.

Refurbished / tested — previously deployed equipment, cleaned, firmware-checked and functionally tested against the manufacturer's specification before shipment. CRS PLUS warranty applies.

Condition is confirmed in writing on every quotation before you commit to an order.

Warranty

Warranty terms vary by item, by condition and by the supplier the equipment is sourced from. They are stated in writing on the quotation, per line item, before you commit to an order.

Where equipment is supplied new through the manufacturer's own channel, the manufacturer's warranty applies and is passed to you.

Send us the part numbers you need and we will confirm warranty terms alongside availability, condition, lead time and price.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Does Finisar still exist as a company?

Finisar was acquired by II-VI Incorporated in 2019. II-VI later acquired Coherent, Inc. and renamed itself Coherent Corp. in 2022, so Finisar optics are now part of the Coherent Corp. product range, though legacy FTLF part numbers are unchanged.

Will a Finisar SFP work in my Cisco, Huawei or Nokia equipment?

Finisar built its optics to the open SFP/SFP+ multi-source agreement rather than a proprietary platform, so its modules are commonly used as interoperable optics across many vendors' equipment. Some host platforms apply vendor-ID locking in firmware; tell us your host platform and we will flag anything worth checking.

One of your Finisar items doesn't list a part number — why?

The source record for that item carried only a regulatory reference rather than a usable Finisar part number. We list it honestly as a Finisar SFP with the detail available and will confirm the exact part on request before quotation.

Is Finisar the same company as Coherent?

Finisar was acquired by II-VI Incorporated in 2019, and II-VI took the name Coherent Corp. in 2022 after acquiring Coherent, Inc. Finisar-branded part numbers such as FTLX8574D3BCL continue to be quoted under their original codes.

Manufacturer names, product names and part numbers are the property of their respective owners and are used here for identification purposes only. CRS PLUS sources these products through its qualified supplier base and holds no distributor, reseller or agency appointment from any manufacturer listed.

This catalogue is compiled from our supplier network's available inventory and from manufacturer product documentation, and is reviewed monthly. Listing does not indicate stock held by CRS PLUS — availability, condition and lead time are confirmed per enquiry. Last reviewed: 3 November 2026.
