GBIC SX Transceivers
The 1000BASE-SX transceiver supports a direct connection to
62.5-micron or 50-micron multimode fiber-optic cable.
Table 7 lists the transmission ranges for each GBIC SX connection.
GBIC LX Transceivers
The 1000BASE-LX transceiver supports these connections:
■
Direct connection to single-mode fiber-optic cable
■
Connection to multimode fiber through a conditioned launch cable
To ensure optimal performance, compatibility, and regulatory compliance,
use only conditioned launch cables that 3Com supports. For a list of
currently supported conditioned launch cables, see this 3Com Web site:

Table 8 lists the transmission ranges for each GBIC LX connection.
