• SFP GBIC (1000BASE-SX or LX) with LC-type connectors. The GBIC can
use either:
– Longwave-length SFP GBICs (CSS5-GBIC-LX). The longwave length
transceiver (1000BASE-LX) can reach 550 meters for all multimode
media types. For single-mode fiber, the distance is 5,000 meters.
– Shortwave-length SFP GBICs (CSS5-GBIC-SX). The transceiver
distance can reach from 220 meters to 500 meters, depending on the
quality of the fiber.
Warning Because invisible radiation may be emitted from the aperture of the port when
no fiber cable is connected, avoid exposure to radiation and do not stare into
open apertures.
