1000Base-LX is a type of wiring for Gigabit Ethernet. It is the long wavelength implementation of a similar transceiver that can obviously span a further distance. 1000Base-LX SFP transceiver modules provide fast and easy 1000BASE-LX connection for wide industrial equipment. This post gives a brief description about 1000BASE-LX SFP modules.

The 1000BASE-LX SFP module, compatible with the IEEE 802.3 1000BASE-LX standard, is the only kind of Gigabit Ethernet SFP transceiver that can operate both on single-mode and multi-mode fiber. The transmission distance of 1000BASE-LX SFP on single-mode fiber is up to 10km, while on multi-mode fiber is 550m. 1000BASE-LX SFP modules can provide a 1000 Mbps wired connection to a network through an LX fiber-optic link using an LC physical connector. It supports dual data rate of 1.25Gbps/1.0625Gbps. With a metal housing, it can effectively reduce Electro Magnetic Interference (EMI) and increase durability. The following is a picture of AA1419015-E5 1000BASE-LX SFP transceiver.

To install a 1000BASE-LX SFP module in the Gigabit Ethernet port, perform these steps:

• 1. Remove the 1000BASE-LX SFP from its protective packaging.
• 2. Verify that the SFP module is the correct model for your network configuration.
• 3. Grasp the SFP module between your thumb and forefinger.
• 4. Insert the 1000BASE-LX SFP into the SFP slot on the module. Apply a light pressure to the SFP until the device clicks and locks into position in the module.
• 5.Remove the dust cover from the SFP optical bores.

1000BASE-LX SFP transceivers are available with a variety of transmitter and receiver types, which allows users to select the appropriate one for each link to provide the required optical reach, depending on their application and distance capability required. 1000BASE-LX SFP transceivers is intended mainly for connecting high-speed hubs, Ethernet switches, and routers together in different wiring closets or buildings using long cabling runs, and developed to support longer-length multi-mode building fiber backbones and single mode campus backbones.

HP JD119B 1000BASE-LX SFP transceiver consists of three parts: a FP laser transmitter, a PIN photodiode integrated with a trans-impedance preamplifier (TIA) and MCU control unit. Brocade E1MG-LX-OM 1000BASE-LX SFP transceiver offers the same function with Brocade E1MG-LX-OM and it is fully compatible with Brocade devices. The transceiver consists of three sections: a DFB laser transmitter, a PIN photodiode integrated with a trans-impedance preamplifier (TIA) and MCU control unit. These two kinds of 1000BASE-LX SFP transceivers both are high performance and cost effective modules supporting dual data-rate of 1.25Gbps/1.0625Gbps and 10km transmission distance with SMF. And they are also compatible with SFP multi-source agreement (MSA) and SFF-8472. And there are many other kinds of 1000BASE-LX SFP transceivers from Fiberstore. Fiberstore is professional fiber optic products supplier and manufacturer, which offers a wide range of 1000BASE-LX SFP transceivers branded by many famous companies, like Cisco, Juniper, Brocade, and HP.

As Gigabit Ethernet has been demonstrated to be a viable solution for increased bandwidth requirements for growing networks, the market is flooded with various 1000BASE SFP transceivers. Fiberstore supplies many kinds of 1000BASE SFP transceivers including 1000BASE-LX SFP transceiver above.
