Part numbers: 10060, 10060H
The dual-speed 100LX/1000LX SFP and industrial 100LX/1000LX SFP modules operate at either 100 Mbps or 1000 Mbps over SMF links up to 10 km long. Operating at 100 Mbps, these dual-speed SFPs conform to the 100BASE-LX standard. Operating at 1000 Mbps, the dual-speed SFP conforms to the 1000BASE-LX standard.
For a complete listing of hardware compatible with these modules, see the Extreme Optics Compatibility website.
Transmission distances are provided as a nominal guide only. To determine achievable distances, refer to the device's optical specifications and to the specific characteristics of your fiber installation.
The 100LX/1000LX SFP modules also comply with the 100LX-SMF standard.
To use the 100LX/1000LX SFP module in 100LX-MMF operation, a minimum attenuation of 6 dB is required. After the SFP module is installed, connect a 6-dB attenuator to the transmitter side (Tx) of the SFP module. Next, connect the attenuator to the single-mode end of a mode conditioning patch cord. The mode conditioning patch cord transitions the SFP module from SMF to MMF operation.
When in SMF operation, either 100LX-SMF or 1000LX, measure the cable plant losses with a 1310 nm light source and verify this to be within budget. When you calculate the maximum distance attainable using optical cable with a specified loss per kilometer (for example, 0.25 dB/km), Extreme Networks recommends that 3 dB of the total budget be reserved for losses induced by cable splices or connectors and operating margin.
Note
The 100LX/1000LX SFP module detects link status based only on the presence of light in the receive cable. Therefore, if a single strand is broken, the link partner on the other port will not detect link down.Operating at 100 Mbps, the dual-speed SFPs conform to the 100BASE-LX10 standard. Operating at 1000 Mbps, the dual-speed SFPs conform to the 1000BASE-LX standard.
