Description

Add-On SFP-1G-BX-D-20-I-AO MSA Comp SFP LC 1G-BX Transceiver

Overview

The Add-On SFP-1G-BX-D-20-I-AO is an MSA-compliant Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) transceiver designed for 1 Gigabit Ethernet connections over single-mode fiber. It utilizes Bi-Directional (BiDi) technology, transmitting and receiving data on a single fiber strand using different wavelengths (1490nm Tx / 1310nm Rx). This configuration effectively doubles the capacity of existing fiber infrastructure, making it ideal for extending network reach in environments where deploying a second fiber strand is impractical or costly, such as upgrading surveillance networks or connecting remote network switches.

Compatibility

This SFP module is designed to be compatible with network devices that support MSA-compliant SFP transceivers. This includes a wide range of managed switches, routers, and network interface cards from various manufacturers. Specifically, it is suitable for use in network equipment requiring 1Gbps fiber connectivity with an LC connector and BiDi functionality. Always verify your network device's SFP port specifications for compatibility with 1000BASE-BX standards.

Installation Notes

Ensure the network device is powered off before inserting or removing the SFP module. Gently push the SFP module into the SFP slot until it clicks into place. The module requires a single-strand single-mode fiber optic cable with an LC connector. Note the specific transmit (1490nm) and receive (1310nm) wavelengths; ensure the connected fiber port on the other end uses the complementary wavelengths (1310nm Tx / 1490nm Rx) for a successful link. Avoid touching the optical connector pins to prevent contamination.
