What is 1000BASE-ZX?
1000BASE-ZX is a non-standard but multi-vendor term to refer to Gigabit Ethernet transmission using 1,550 nm wavelength to achieve distances of at least 70 kilometres (43 miles) over single-mode fiber. Some vendors specify distances up to 120 kilometres (75 miles) over single-mode fiber, sometimes called 1000BASE-EZX.
What is ZX SFP?
Product description. The Cisco 1000BASE-ZX SFP Module is an industry-standard Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) Gigabit Interface Converter that links switches and routers to the network.
When was the Gigabit Ethernet network developed?
1988
Explanation: The Gigabit Ethernet (Gbe) network was developed in 1988. It was developed by merging two technologies namely 802.3 Ethernet and ANSI X3T11 fiber channel.
Which wire pairs are used on a 1000Base T network?
The official standard for 1000Base-T (gigabit speeds) is IEEE 802.3ab. It is designed to run on twisted pair copper cables over various categories. These copper cable categories are Cat5, Cat5e, Cat6 and Cat6A.
What is the maximum distance the 1000BASE-SX SFP can support?
The 1000BASE-SX SFP, compatible with the IEEE 802.3z 1000BASE-SX standard, operates on legacy 50 μm multimode fiber links up to 550 m and on 62.5 μm Fiber Distributed Data Interface (FDDI)-grade multimode fibers up to 220 m. It can support up to 1km over laser-optimized 50 μm multimode fiber cable.
What type of auto negotiation is supported by the 1000BASE-T SFP modules?
Cisco 1000BASE-T SFP modules support 10/100/1000 auto negotiation and Auto MDI/MDIX. The 1000BASE-SX SFP, compatible with the IEEE 802.3z 1000BASE-SX standard, operates on legacy 50 μm multimode fiber links up to 550 m and on 62.5 μm Fiber Distributed Data Interface (FDDI)-grade multimode fibers up to 220 m.
What type of cabling is used in 1000 base T SFP?
The 1000BASE-T SFP operates on standard Category 5 unshielded twisted-pair copper cabling of link lengths up to 100 m (328 ft). Cisco 1000BASE-T SFP modules support 10/100/1000 auto negotiation and Auto MDI/MDIX.
What is the range of the 1000BASE-LX/LH SFP?
The 1000BASE-LX/LH SFP, compatible with the IEEE 802.3z 1000BASE-LX standard, operates on standard single-mode fiber-optic link spans of up to 10 km and up to 550 m on any multimode fibers. When used over legacy multimode fiber type, the transmitter should be coupled through a mode conditioning patch cable.
