Transceiver Modules
The Transition Networks TN-GB-xM5x series Gigabit
Interface Converter (GBIC) transceiver modules,
designed to be installed in any GBIC port, connect
multimode 1000Base-SX or single mode 1000Base-LX
fiber-optic cable to the network through the GBIC
connector.
The GBIC transceiver also complies with IEEE
802.3z™ which allows this device to be used with
IEEE 803.3z™ compliant devices from other vendors
without voiding the warranty of either device.
