Intellinet 507486 — Gigabit BiDi SFP, GLC-BX-D Equivalent
1 GbpsOne fibre strandTx 1550 nmUp to 10 km
The Intellinet 507486 is a Gigabit WDM bidirectional SFP transceiver that runs a full link over one single-mode fibre strand, up to 10 km. It transmits at 1550 nm and receives at 1310 nm, with digital diagnostics, and Intellinet builds it as an equivalent of the Cisco GLC-BX-D — the “downstream” end of a BiDi pair. In practice, bidirectional optics are used where fibre is scarce — a leased dark-fibre strand, a full duct or an old building link. Before you order, confirm which end of the strand gets which module type and that the fibre is single-mode all the way.
Compatibility — check before buying:
This is one half of a pair: Intellinet states it must be paired with its 507509 or a Cisco GLC-BX-U, which is not included. Two 507486 modules will not link to each other. It uses one single-mode strand, not a duplex pair. Keep the dust cap on until you connect the fibre, and clean both connector ends before every mating — dirt is the most common cause of a link that will not come up. Not sure? Send us your device model and the cable run and we check it before you order.
Best For
✓ Gigabit over a single fibre strand
✓ Cisco networks that use GLC-BX-D / BX-U
✓ Leased or shared dark fibre
✓ Links between buildings up to 10 km
✓ Replacing a failed BX-D module
✓ Doubling the use of an existing fibre pair
Key Features
Gigabit on one strand
Both directions share one single-mode strand up to 10 km, so an existing fibre pair can carry two links.
One strand instead of two
A bidirectional optic sends and receives on different wavelengths over a single single-mode strand, which halves the fibre you need. The price of that is pairing: the two ends must be opposite types.
Monitoring you can read
Digital diagnostics (DDM) let the host report temperature, laser power and received light, so a dirty connector or a failing link shows up before users call.
Hot-swappable
Modules plug into a live port without shutting the switch down, so a link can be added or replaced during working hours. Seat it until it clicks and use the latch to remove it.

Frequently Asked Questions
Singular Expert Insight
We suggest the 507486 with a 507509 when fibre strands are scarce between two sites, or as a lower-cost replacement for a Cisco GLC-BX-D. Order both ends together and label them — D must always face U. Every order is backed by Singular’s local support in Cyprus — if a link will not come up, send us the port status and we help you find out whether it is the module, the cable or the configuration. Browse all transceivers and DAC cables or the switches they plug into.
Buyer’s Guide
Buy it if
You need Gigabit over one single-mode strand up to 10 km with a 507509 or GLC-BX-U at the far end.
Skip it if
You have two strands available, you only order one end, or your fibre is multimode.
Also consider
Intellinet 507509, the matching far-end module.
