DELTA MGBIX-LH-F SFP Mini GBIC Transceiver, 1.25G, 1310nm, 20km, LC Duplex, Single-mode

Fiber optic links often face distance limitations and signal degradation when using standard multimode transceivers. The DELTA MGBIX-LH-F SFP Mini GBIC module solves this by delivering reliable Gigabit Ethernet connectivity over single-mode fiber up to 20 kilometers. It is a hot-pluggable transceiver that fits into SFP ports on switches, routers, and media converters, providing a cost-effective way to extend network reach without replacing existing infrastructure.

Who is it for

This transceiver is ideal for network administrators, system integrators, and IT professionals who need to connect devices across buildings, campuses, or metropolitan areas. It suits enterprise LANs, data centers, and service provider networks where long-distance fiber links are required. It is also suitable for anyone upgrading from older GBIC modules to the more compact SFP form factor.

Main features

• Supports data rates up to 1.25 Gbps for Gigabit Ethernet applications.
• Uses a 1310 nm FP laser transmitter for reliable performance over single-mode fiber.
• Reaches distances up to 20 km, perfect for long-haul connections.
• Equipped with an LC duplex connector for easy and secure fiber termination.
• Hot-pluggable design allows installation and removal without powering down the host device.
• Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM) support enables real-time monitoring of key parameters like temperature, voltage, and optical power.

Tips

For optimal performance, pair this transceiver with single-mode fiber optic cables that have LC connectors. Ensure both ends of the link use compatible transceivers with the same wavelength and data rate. When inserting the module, align it carefully with the SFP port and push until it clicks into place. Use the DDM feature to monitor link health and proactively detect issues before they cause downtime.
