Setup

If your installation requires installing less than sixteen GBIC modules, the

unused port positions are protected by a metal, spring-loaded door that

covers the opening.

SWL Fibre-Optic GBIC Module

The SWL fibre-optic GBIC module, with a black SC connector, is based on

short-wavelength 850 nm lasers supporting 1.0625 Gbps link speeds. This

GBIC module supports both 50-micron and 62.5-micron, multi-mode fibre

optic cables up to 500 meters in length. Figure 21 shows a SWL GBIC

module.

Note

The SWL GBIC module uses a Class 1 laser, which complies with

the 21 CFR, subpart (J) as of the date of manufacture.

LWL Fibre-Optic GBIC Module

The LWL fibre-optic GBIC module, with a blue SC connector, is based on

long-wavelength 1300 nm lasers supporting 1.0625 Gbps link speeds. This
