Fiber optic transceiver module PLANET MGB-L40

The PLANET MGB-L40 is a mini-GBIC (SFP) fiber optic transceiver module supporting 1000BASE-LX single-mode operation at 1310 nm and a data rate of 1000 Mbit/s. It is hot-pluggable and compliant with the SFP Multi-Source Agreement (MSA), designed for straightforward integration into SFP-compatible network equipment to extend fiber links over long distances.

Advantages

The MGB-L40 offers hot-pluggable installation and SFP MSA compliance for compatibility with many network devices. It supports long-distance single-mode transmission up to typical LX ranges and is built for reliable 1000 Mbit/s duplex data links. Its compact mini-GBIC form factor allows easy replacement or upgrades without interrupting host equipment operation.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers and media converters with SFP slots
• Extending network links over single-mode fiber (long distance)
• Enterprise, data center and industrial network uplinks requiring 1 Gbit/s
