Palo Alto Networks PAN-SFP-EX Compatible 1000BASE-EX SFP 1310nm 40km DDM Duplex LC/UPC SMF Optical Transceiver Module

The HYTOPTODEVICE PAN-SFP-EX compatible SFP is rigorously verified for seamless operation with:

• Palo Alto PA-Series Firewalls: PA-220, PA-400 Series (410, 440, 450, 460), PA-800 Series (820, 850).

• Mid-Range Firewalls: PA-3200 Series (3220, 3250, 3260), PA-3400 Series.

• High-End Enterprise Firewalls: PA-5200 Series (5220, 5250, 5260, 5280), PA-5400 Series.

• Palo Alto Panorama Managed Appliances: M-200, M-300, M-600 (where SFP ports are available).

• Secure Site-to-Site Connectivity: Linking geographically dispersed data centers or branch offices up to 40km apart while maintaining full firewall inspection.

• Metropolitan Security Fabric: Providing reliable 1.25G fiber uplinks for regional government or enterprise security clusters where standard 10km LX modules are insufficient.

• Redundant HA (High Availability) Links: Serving as a dedicated long-distance synchronization link for Palo Alto firewall HA clusters in active-passive or active-active modes.

FAQ for Palo Alto Networks PAN-SFP-EX Compatible SFP Transceiver:

Q1: Is the HYTOPTODEVICE module recognized by PAN-OS? A: Yes. Our modules are flashed with the correct Palo Alto EEPROM signatures, ensuring they are identified as genuine by PAN-OS without "unsupported hardware" warnings or system logs.

Q2: Does this 40km module support Digital Optical Monitoring (DOM)? A: Absolutely. It features full DOM/DDM support, allowing you to monitor real-time diagnostics like laser temperature, supply voltage, and optical tx/rx power directly through the Palo Alto Web UI (Dashboard) or CLI using show transceiver-status.

Q3: Can I use this 1G SFP in a 10G SFP+ port on a PA-3220? A: Yes, Palo Alto SFP+ ports are backward compatible. Simply insert the PAN-SFP-EX compatible module, and the firewall will recognize it as a 1Gbps interface.

Q4: Do I need an optical attenuator for short fiber runs? A: For fiber links shorter than 5km, we recommend using a 10dB LC optical attenuator. The high-power 1310nm EX laser is designed for 40km and may over-saturate the receiver at close distances.

Q5: Palo Alto Networks PAN-SFP-EX  not working？ A:Follow these quick steps:

1. Check DDM: Run show transceiver detail on the switch. Look for Low Rx Power or faults.

2. Clean & Reseat: Clean the LC fiber connectors and firmly re-seat the SFP module.

3. Verify Fiber: Ensure you are using a single-mode (SMF) patch cable. Check for bends or breaks.

4. Swap Test: If possible, test the SFP in a different port or swap it with a known-working module to isolate the fault.

If DDM shows "Low Tx Power" or "Fault", the module is likely defective and needs replacement
