Network transceiver module MicroOptics Lanview 1000BASE-SX SFP 1000 Mbit/s LC

The MicroOptics Lanview 1000BASE-SX SFP is a compact fiber-optic transceiver module designed for short-range Gigabit Ethernet links over multimode fiber. With an SFP interface and LC connector, this module supports data rates up to 1000 Mbit/s and is intended for integration in switches, routers and optical uplinks in data centers and enterprise networks. Its small form factor and 20 g weight allow easy installation in standard SFP ports without adding significant bulk.

Advantages

The module offers industry-standard SFP compatibility, enabling hot-pluggable insertion into compatible networking equipment. Support for the 1000BASE-SX specification ensures reliable gigabit connectivity on multimode fiber for short distances. The LC connector provides a compact and widely adopted fiber interface, while the low-weight design contributes to convenient handling and reduced strain on host devices.

Suitable for

• Short-range Gigabit Ethernet links over multimode fiber
• Switch-to-switch or switch-to-router uplinks in data centers
• Enterprise network backbone and optical aggregation ports
• Equipment requiring SFP form-factor transceivers with LC interface

Key specifications

• Interface type: SFP (small form-factor pluggable)
• Supported data rate: up to 1000 Mbit/s (Gigabit Ethernet)
• Optical connector: LC duplex
• Optimized for: multimode fiber, short-range 1000BASE-SX links
• Physical weight: 0.02 kg

How to use

Install the MicroOptics Lanview SFP module into an empty SFP slot on a compatible switch, router or media converter while the host device is powered according to the manufacturer's guidelines for hot-pluggable modules. Connect an LC-terminated multimode fiber cable to the module's LC connector, ensuring correct polarity and secure seating. Verify link status via the host device's management interface and confirm negotiated speed is 1 Gbps. Follow the network equipment supplier's instructions for any necessary configuration or firmware compatibility checks.

Recommendations

Use multimode fiber rated for 1000BASE-SX and keep transceiver and cable connectors clean and dust-free. For reliable short-range performance, observe the distance limits associated with the multimode fiber type in use and monitor link status during initial deployment.
