LevelOne GVT-0301 SFP Transceiver 1000BASE-LX Gigabit 1310 nm Duplex LC Single-Mode up to 10 km DDM MSA Compliant
LevelOne GVT-0301 — Gigabit LX SFP, 10 km
The LevelOne GVT-0301 is a Gigabit SFP transceiver of the 1000BASE-LX type, carrying 1.25 Gbps over 9/125 µm single-mode fibre up to 10 km at 1310 nm through a duplex LC connection, with digital diagnostics. It is LevelOne’s standard module for campus backbones and links between buildings, and it is built to the SFP MSA, so it is not tied to one switch brand. 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.
