Questions & Answers
What is the CWDM-GBIC-1490 1000BASE-CWDM GBIC module?
The CWDM-GBIC-1490 is a 1000BASE-CWDM Gigabit Interface Converter (GBIC) module designed for single-mode fiber links at a 1490 nm wavelength.
What wavelength does the CWDM-GBIC-1490 operate at?
This GBIC operates at a precise 1490 nm wavelength, optimized for coarse wavelength division multiplexing (CWDM) applications in gigabit networks.
Which fiber type is required for the CWDM-GBIC-1490?
The CWDM-GBIC-1490 requires single-mode fiber (SMF) with LC simplex connectors to ensure optimal signal integrity over long distances.
What is the maximum transmission distance of the CWDM-GBIC-1490?
It supports a maximum reach of up to 60 km over standard single-mode fiber under typical operating conditions.
