Using multimode fiber optic cable, the 100BASE-FX port can be connected to a remote site up to 2 km (1.24 miles) away. The 100BASE-FX module is fixed to operate at 100 Mbps full duplex, and supports auto-negotiation for flow control. This module is fitted with an SC connector, but you can attach an ST plug to the switch using the SC-ST Converter (Part Number: 99-012034-091).

Figure 1-7. Single-Port 1000BASE-X GBIC Module

This module supports 5V 1000BASE-SX, 1000BASE-LX and 1000BASE-ZX GBIC transceivers:

1000BASE-SX GBIC transceivers provide one short-wavelength (850 nm) Gigabit port that can be used for a high-speed backbone or server connection. This port can be connected to a site up to 220 m (722 ft) away with 62.5/125 micron multimode fiber cable, or up to 500 m (1641 ft) with 50/125 micron multimode fiber cable.

1000BASE-LX GBIC transceivers provide one long-wavelength (1300 nm) Gigabit port that can be used for a high-speed backbone or server
