What is 100BASE-FX SFP?

What is 100BASE-FX SFP?

The Cisco® 100BASE-X Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP) is a hot-swappable input/output device that plugs into a Fast Ethernet port or slot, linking the port with the network. Hot-swappable when deployed, the switch or router does not have to reboot.

Is 100BASE-FX single mode?

The 100Base-FX SFP Single-Mode LC Module, model TE100-MGBS20, works with standard SFP (Mini-GBIC) slots on most switches and supports Single-Mode network transmission speeds of up to 155 Mbps.

Is 100BASE-FX compatible with 100BASE LX?

1 Answer. 100Base FX and 1000Base LX – are they compatible? No, not normally. While both use 1300 nm light, 100BASE-FX is designed for multi-mode fiber and 1000BASE-LX for single-mode.

Is Fast Ethernet full duplex?

Fast Ethernet devices are generally backward compatible with existing 10BASE-T systems, enabling plug-and-play upgrades from 10BASE-T. A full-duplex mode is also specified and in practice all modern networks use Ethernet switches and operate in full-duplex mode, even as legacy devices that use half duplex still exist.

What does Base FX mean?

100BASE-FX is the technical name of Fast Ethernet over fiber optic cables. It is a version of Fast Ethernet carrying data traffic at 100 Mbps (Mega bits per second) in local area networks (LAN). It was launched as the IEEE 802.3u standard in 1995.

Is FX single-mode or multimode?

The 100BASE-FX standard specifies multimode fiber as the transmission medium. Because 100-FX operates over multimode fiber and reaches distances up to two kilometers, there continues to be widespread use of 100-FX as a cost-effective way to extend Ethernet networks.

What is SFP FX?

The small form-factor pluggable (SFP) is a compact, hot-pluggable network interface module used for both telecommunication and data communications applications. The form factor and electrical interface are specified by a multi-source agreement (MSA) under the auspices of the Small Form Factor Committee.

What is the difference between GLC-fe-100fx and Cisco 100BASE-FX?

The Cisco 100BASE-FX SFP operates on ordinary multimode fiber-optic (MMF) link spans up to 2 kilometers (km) long. GLC-FE-100FX modules operate in Fast Ethernet or dual-rate Fast/Gigabit Ethernet ports of Cisco switches and routers.

What type of cabling is used in the 100zx SFP?

GLC-FE-100ZX modules operate in Fast Ethernet or dual-rate Fast/Gigabit Ethernet ports of Cisco switches and routers. The 100BASE-T SFP operates on standard Category 5 unshielded twisted-pair copper cabling of link lengths up to 100 m (328 ft).

What is the Cisco 100BASE-X?

The Cisco® 100BASE-X Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) device (Figure 1) is a hot-swappable input/output device that plugs into Fast Ethernet ports, dual-rate Fast/Gigabit Ethernet ports, or Gigabit Ethernet ports of a Cisco switch or router, linking the port with the fiber cabling network. Main features include the following:

What is the temperature range of the 100BASE-T SFP?

The 100BASE-T SFP operates on standard Category 5 unshielded twisted-pair copper cabling of link lengths up to 100 m (328 ft). It supports Industrial temperature range of -40 to 85C.
