1000BASE-FX Fiber-Optic Network
The Mini‐GBIC port sockets 19 and 20 on the A2H254‐16 enable you to vary the type of 1‐Gbps port connection. At the printing of this document there were five Mini‐GBICs available that support fiber‐optic connections, as listed below, and one that supports a copper connection as described in “1000BASE‐T Twisted Pair Gigabit Ethernet Network” on page 2‐2:
•MGBIC‐LC01 for a 1000BASE‐SX compliant LC fiber‐optic multimode connection
•MGBIC‐LC03 for a 1000BASE‐SX Long Haul LC fiber‐optic multimode connection
•MGBIC‐LC09 for a 1000BASE‐LX compliant LC fiber‐optic single‐mode connection
•MGBIC‐08 for a 1000BASE‐ELX compliant LC fiber‐optic single‐mode connection
•MGBIC‐MT01 for a 1000BASE‐SX compliant MT‐RJ fiber‐optic single‐mode connection
The device at the other end of the fiber connection must meet the same Gigabit Ethernet requirements for the connected devices to operate at 1‐Gigabit speed.
