Intellinet 506724 Gigabit Fibre SFP Transceiver 1000BASE-LX 1310 nm LC Single-Mode up to 20 km Cisco GLC-LH-SM-20
Intellinet 506724 — Gigabit LX SFP, 20 km
The Intellinet 506724 is a Gigabit SFP transceiver for single-mode fibre, reaching up to 20 km at 1310 nm over an LC duplex connection. Intellinet presents it as equivalent to the Cisco GLC-LH-SM-20 and for use in Intellinet or any other MSA-compliant SFP switch, for links between buildings and sites. In practice, single-mode optics are the choice when a link leaves the building or runs several hundred metres: the OS2 fibre used by carriers and campus backbones carries the signal for kilometres with little loss. Before you order, confirm the fibre is single-mode at both ends and note the length and the number of patch panels on the way.
