Description

Black Box LGC325A-R5 Fiber Optic Transceiver

Overview

The Black Box LGC325A-R5 is a single-mode fiber optic transceiver designed to extend network connectivity for surveillance systems. It operates at 1550nm on one fiber strand and 1310nm on another, enabling full-duplex communication over a single pair of fiber optic cables. This unit is essential for bridging significant distances where standard Ethernet cabling is insufficient, typically found in large campus environments or long-haul industrial deployments. Its black color allows for discreet integration into rack-mount or wall-mount enclosures.

Compatibility

This transceiver utilizes SC connectors and is designed for use with network devices featuring compatible SFP (Small Form-Factor Pluggable) ports. It is intended for integration into IP-based surveillance networks, including those utilizing network switches or media converters that accept standard SFP modules. Specific compatibility extends to network infrastructure supporting 1000BASE-LX/LH standards for single-mode fiber transmission.

Installation Notes

Ensure the connected fiber optic cables are clean and free from damage prior to insertion. The LGC325A-R5 requires a standard SFP slot on a compatible network device. Verify that the transmit (Tx) and receive (Rx) ports are correctly matched between two transceivers or between a transceiver and the network device's fiber port to establish a link. Operating temperature range is critical for reliable performance; consult the manufacturer's specifications for precise environmental limits.
