TN-GLC-FE-100BX-D-40 - Transition 100Base-BX 1550nm Tx/1310nm Rx Single Fiber (Lc) Sm 40km/24.9 Mi SFP Transceiver Module

Description

The Transition Networks TN-GLC-FE-100BX-D-40 is a specialized transceiver module engineered to facilitate Fast Ethernet (100 Mbps) communication over fiber optic links. Its operation at a 1310nm wavelength is characteristic of single-mode fiber deployments, allowing for extended transmission distances compared to multimode fiber. This module is typically integrated into network switches, routers, or media converters to provide a fiber optic interface where copper cabling is insufficient or impractical. The 'BX' in the part number often signifies a Bi-Directional (BiDi) transceiver, which uses different wavelengths on the transmit and receive paths over a single strand of fiber, thus maximizing fiber utilization. While the title doesn't explicitly state BiDi, it's a common feature for modules with this naming convention. The 'D' might indicate a specific distance rating or feature set. The '40' could refer to a distance of 40 kilometers, a common specification for single-mode transceivers. This transceiver is crucial for network engineers looking to bridge network segments, connect buildings, or extend network reach in metropolitan or campus environments. Its compatibility with the GLC form factor ensures broad interoperability with a wide range of networking equipment that supports this standard interface. The 1310nm wavelength is a standard for medium to long-reach single-mode fiber applications.
