Applications
Network architects choose the 1G SFP GLC-BX-20U 20km 1310nm-TX/1550nm-RX Simplex LC/UPC Module, Cisco for enterprise access, campus, telecom edge and industrial network environments: it runs 1.25Gbps over SMF and reaches 20km. The Simplex LC/UPC interface and 1310nm-TX/1550nm-RX optics match the standard cabling plant used in modern data halls, so existing trunks can be reused. For networks standardized on Cisco hardware, it is a drop-in equivalent of the GLC-BX-20U.
Standards and Compatibility
On the compatibility side, this unit is the practical equivalent of the Cisco part GLC-BX-20U and works in Cisco systems out of the box. Standards compliance covers Fast Ethernet, Gigabit Fibre Channel, MSA Compliant.
Ordering Information
Order this product as SFP-1G35-BX20. Common models are stocked for fast dispatch. We can supply the module with neutral or customer-branded labels, and compatibility coding for a specific equipment vendor can be added at no extra process step.
Packaging
Each unit is sealed in an anti-static bag, cushioned in a blister tray and boxed in an export-grade carton. Outer cartons carry handling marks and can be palletized for air or sea freight. If your project requires retail boxes, barcodes or your own brand on the label, we can arrange that as well.
OEM and Custom Orders
We have manufactured fiber optic connectivity products since 1995 and run our own production lines in Shenzhen. Beyond the standard catalog we build to order: special cable lengths, custom connector combinations, vendor-specific compatibility coding and private labeling. Send us your requirement and our engineers will quote a practical solution.
How We Ship
Most orders travel by international express and arrive within days; palletized freight by air or sea is used for volume orders. If you prefer, we ship on your DHL, UPS or FedEx account, or deliver to your appointed agent in China for onward consolidation.
Tested Before Shipment
We do not ship untested stock. Each transceiver and cable is powered up in our test racks, checked for link stability, transmit power, receiver sensitivity and diagnostic readouts, and only then packed for delivery. This factory-level testing is one reason network integrators keep reordering from us year after year.
