Mini-GBIC Type and Specifications
Table 4 describes the mini-GBIC type and distances for the Summit 400-48t.
SX Mini-GBIC Specifications
Table 5 describes the specifications for the SX mini-GBIC.
Total optical system budget for the SX mini-GBIC is 11.5 dB. Extreme Networks recommends that 3 dB
of the total budget be reserved for losses induced by cable splices, connectors, and operating margin.
While 8.5 dB remains available for cable-induced attenuation, the 1000BASE-SX standard specifies
supported distances of 275 meters over 62.5 micron multimode fiber and 550 meters over 50 micron
multimode fiber. There is no minimum attenuation or minimum cable length restriction.
LX Mini-GBIC Specifications
Table 6 describes the specifications for the LX mini-GBIC.
