LevelOne SFP-3211 Gigabit SFP Transceiver 1000BASE-LX 1310 nm Duplex LC Single-Mode up to 10 km
LevelOne SFP-3211 — Gigabit LX SFP, Single-Mode 10 km
The LevelOne SFP-3211 is a Gigabit SFP transceiver for single-mode fibre: 1000BASE-LX at 1310 nm over a duplex LC connection, up to 10 km on 9/125 µm fibre. It is the commercial-temperature LX module for links between buildings on LevelOne switches and media converters and on other MSA-compliant SFP ports. In practice, single-mode optics are the choice when a link leaves the building or runs more than a few hundred metres: the 9/125 µm 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.
