Product Description
The Alcatel-Lucent MINIGBIC-SX is a Gigabit Ethernet transceiver module that utilizes the Mini-GBIC (Gigabit Interface Converter) form factor. This module is designed for short-reach communication links, operating at a wavelength of 850nm, which is standard for short-wavelength transceivers used with multi-mode fiber. The 'SX' designation indicates its suitability for short-reach applications on MMF. This Mini-GBIC module supports a data rate of 1 Gbps, making it compatible with Gigabit Ethernet ports on network switches and other networking equipment. It features a duplex LC connector, the standard interface for fiber optic connections, ensuring a secure and reliable physical link. The transceiver is intended for use with multi-mode fiber (MMF) optic cables and can support transmission distances of up to 550 meters, depending on the quality and type of MMF cable deployed. While the SFP form factor has largely superseded Mini-GBIC, many older network devices still utilize this interface. The MINIGBIC-SX module adheres to relevant industry standards, including the SFP Multi-Source Agreement (MSA) and IEEE 802.3z, ensuring interoperability with compatible equipment. It serves as a cost-effective solution for extending network connectivity within a local area, such as within a building's wiring closet or across a campus network segment where multi-mode fiber is already in place.
