Product Description
The Compaq 254142-001 is a 1Gb/s GBIC (Gigabit Interface Converter) transceiver module. This module is designed for high-speed network connectivity, specifically for Gigabit Ethernet applications. The specification of 1300nm wavelength, combined with the mention of multimode fiber, strongly suggests that this transceiver operates according to the 1000Base-LX standard, which is designed for longer reach compared to short-wavelength transceivers. This GBIC module facilitates the conversion of electrical signals to optical signals for transmission over fiber optic cables and vice versa. The 1300nm wavelength allows for data transmission over greater distances on multimode fiber than the 850nm wavelength used in 1000Base-SX. This makes it suitable for inter-building connections or longer runs within a large campus environment. The module typically utilizes an SC duplex connector for its fiber optic interface, providing a secure and reliable connection. The GBIC form factor, while older than SFP, was a standard for early Gigabit Ethernet implementations and is still found in many legacy networking devices. The 254142-001 offers a robust solution for maintaining or upgrading network infrastructure that utilizes GBIC ports.
