Cisco GLC-BX160-U Compatible 1000BASE-BX-U SFP BiDi Transceiver Module provides Gigabit Ethernet connectivity up to 160 km (100 miles) over single-mode fiber using WDM technology. It features a 1490 nm DFB laser transmitter and also has a 1550 nm APD photodetector, all in a simplex LC interface for efficient, stable optical performance.
This module operates at a speed of 1.25 Gbps and adheres to the IEEE 802.3z and SFP MSA standards. It also has complete Digital Optical Monitoring (DOM) support for real-time diagnosis of its voltage, temperature, and optical power. The module has a power consumption of less than 1.2 W for energy efficiency. Cisco recommends the use of this transceiver with Cisco Gigabit Ethernet switches, routers, servers, and NICs for Fast Ethernet, Telecom, and Data Center applications.
