Intel E25GSFP28SR 25.78Gbps SFP28 Transceiver

Network-intensive servers need a reliable way to move massive amounts of data without bottlenecks. The Intel E25GSFP28SR 25.78Gbps SFP28 Transceiver gives you a plug-in fibre optic module that turns a standard Ethernet 25GBase-SR port into a high-speed, low-latency link, perfect for modern data-centre workloads that demand consistent performance.

Intel E25GSFP28SR 25.78Gbps SFP28 Transceiver - solving bandwidth bottlenecks for modern data centres

When traffic spikes or virtual machines multiply, the limited capacity of older 10GbE connections can slow applications and increase latency. This matters because every millisecond of delay can affect user experience and service-level agreements. The Intel E25GSFP28SR 25.78Gbps SFP28 Transceiver eliminates the choke point by delivering 25.78 Gbps of clean, fibre-based throughput, ensuring your network keeps pace with demanding workloads while remaining compatible with existing Intel® Ethernet adapters.

Usages of Intel E25GSFP28SR 25.78Gbps SFP28 Transceiver

Ideal for a range of high-performance environments:

• Upgrading blade servers in dense rack deployments that require 25 GbE connectivity.
• Extending storage area networks (SAN) where long-reach fibre links improve reliability.
• Connecting high-speed compute clusters for AI, machine learning, or scientific simulations.
• Enabling low-latency inter-node communication in hyper-converged infrastructure.
• Supporting 25 GbE to 10 GbE migration paths in legacy data-centre upgrades.
