Product Description

The AddOn MC3208011-LX-BXD-40-I-AO is a 1 Gigabit Bidirectional (BiDi) SFP transceiver module designed for use in single-mode fiber optic networks. It enables data transmission and reception over a single fiber strand by utilizing different wavelengths for send and receive functions.

This transceiver is typically used to extend network links up to 40 kilometers, making it suitable for telecommunications and enterprise networking environments that require fiber connectivity over longer distances.

Network engineers and IT professionals use this module to upgrade or add fiber connectivity in switches, routers, or media converters that support SFP modules.

Key Features
  • 1G data rate suitable for Gigabit Ethernet applications
  • BiDi technology allowing duplex communication on a single fiber
  • Designed for single-mode fiber with a maximum reach of 40 km
  • Hot-swappable SFP form factor for flexible installation
  • Supports use in long-distance fiber optic links

The MC3208011-LX-BXD-40-I-AO serves an important role in fiber optic network infrastructure by enabling long-distance, point-to-point Gigabit connections using existing single-mode fiber cabling. Its bidirectional capability reduces fiber cabling requirements, making it useful in environments where fiber availability or routing is constrained.


Use Cases

The AddOn MC3208011-LX-BXD-40-I-AO is typically deployed in network environments requiring Gigabit Ethernet connectivity over long distances where single-mode fiber is installed. It is well-suited for service providers and enterprise networks that need to extend fiber links without adding additional fiber strands.

How It's Used:
  • Connecting switches or routers in campus networks across distant buildings
  • Extending data center interconnects over existing single-mode fiber infrastructure
  • Replacing or upgrading existing fiber transceivers to support bidirectional communication
  • Utilizing in media converters to connect copper Ethernet to fiber optic links
  • Deploying in telecom access networks requiring 1G fiber optic links

This transceiver module provides a practical solution for managing fiber resources by enabling duplex communication on a single fiber strand, which can simplify fiber management and reduce cabling complexity in fiber optic networks.
