Cisco GLC-BX40-U-I 1000BASE-BX40-U for 40km Single-Fiber Bidirectional Applications; with DOM

SKU: GLC-BX40-U-I

The Cisco GLC-BX40-U-I is a high-performance 1000BASE-BX40-U SFP module designed for extended-distance single-fiber bidirectional applications. Engineered to transmit data over a single strand of fiber, this innovative module achieves a range of up to 40km. It supports a unique upstream and downstream wavelength configuration, optimizing bandwidth utilization and enhancing network efficiency. With its Digital Optical Monitoring (DOM) feature, the module offers real-time monitoring of transmission parameters such as optical output power, input power, and more, ensuring reliable and secure operation for critical network infrastructure. Ideal for use in large-scale IT networks where long-distance data transmission is necessary.
