Black Box LGC321A-R5 Fiber Optic Transceiver
Overview
The Black Box LGC321A-R5 is a single-mode fiber optic transceiver module designed to extend Ethernet network connectivity over longer distances than copper cabling allows. This unit utilizes SC connectors and is specified for 1310nm wavelength transmission, making it suitable for point-to-point fiber links in industrial environments, campus networks, or any scenario requiring reliable data transmission beyond the typical 100-meter copper limit. Its compact form factor and specific wavelength allow for integration into compatible network devices.
Compatibility
This transceiver is designed for use with network equipment featuring standard SFP (Small Form-Factor Pluggable) slots that support 1000BASE-LX Gigabit Ethernet standards. It is compatible with a wide range of network switches, routers, and media converters that accept industry-standard SFP modules. The 1310nm wavelength and single-mode fiber compatibility are key for ensuring proper link establishment with other 1310nm transceivers or network infrastructure components.
Installation Notes
Installation involves inserting the LGC321A-R5 module into an available SFP port on your network device. Ensure the port is clean and free of debris. Connect a single-mode fiber optic patch cable with SC connectors to both the transceiver and the corresponding port on the other end of the link. Verify that the connected device is configured to recognize and utilize the SFP module for network traffic. The module operates within a standard temperature range suitable for most indoor or controlled outdoor environments.
