Accortec 1184543P-BX45-ACC 100Mb/s 100Base-BX Transceiver Module

Product Description

The Accortec 1184543P-BX45-ACC is a specialized transceiver module designed for Fast Ethernet (100Mb/s) applications, operating according to the 100Base-BX standard. This standard is a type of Bi-Directional (BiDi) transceiver, meaning it transmits and receives data over a single strand of fiber optic cable by using different wavelengths for each direction. This significantly reduces the amount of fiber cabling required, making it a cost-effective solution for network deployments where fiber resources are limited or expensive to install. This module typically employs an LC connector, which is the most common connector type for fiber optics in modern networking equipment, ensuring broad compatibility. The 100Base-BX technology relies on Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) to send and receive signals simultaneously on the same fiber strand. For this specific module (often designated by a suffix like -BX45), it would operate on a specific pair of wavelengths, requiring a complementary module at the other end of the fiber link that uses the corresponding opposite wavelengths. The Accortec 1184543P-BX45-ACC is suitable for various networking scenarios, including connecting switches, routers, or servers within a building or across a campus. Its 100Mb/s speed is adequate for many standard office applications, and the single-fiber operation offers an advantage in terms of infrastructure cost and deployment flexibility. Accortec provides reliable transceiver solutions that meet industry standards for performance and interoperability.
