FCLF-8521-3

Finisar Corporation – August 2015 Rev. E1 Page 1
Product Specification
1000BASE-T COPPER SFP Optical Transceiver
FCLF-8520/8521-3
PRODUCT FEATURES
Up to 1.25Gb/s bi-directional data links
Hot-pluggable SFP footprint
Extended case temperature range -0°C to
+85°C
Fully metallic enclosure for low EMI
Low power dissipation (1.05W typical)
Compact RJ-45 connector assembly
RoHS-6 compliant (lead-free)
Access to physical layer IC via 2-wire serial
bus
10/100/1000 BASE-T operation in host
systems with SGMII interface
APPLICATIONS
1.25 Gigabit Ethernet
over Cat 5 cable
Finisar’s FCLF-8520/8521-3 1000BASE-T Copper Small Form Pluggable (SFP) transceivers
are based on the SFP Multi Source Agreement (MSA)
1
. They are compatible with the Gigabit
Ethernet and 1000BASE-T standards as specified in IEEE Std 802.3
2
. The 1000BASE-T
physical layer IC (PHY) can be accessed via I2C, allowing access to all PHY settings and
features.
The FCLF-8520-3 uses the SFP’s RX_LOS pin for link indication, and 1000BASE-X auto-
negotiation should be disabled on the host system. The FCLF-8521-3 is compatible with
1000BASE-X auto-negotiation, but does not have a link indication feature (RX_LOS is
internally grounded). See AN-2036 (“Frequently Asked Questions Regarding Finisar’s
1000BASE-T SFPs”) for a more complete explanation on the differences between the two
models and details on applications issues for the products.
The optical transceiver is compliant per the RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU. See Finisar
Application Note AN-2038 for more details
