Applications
Network architects choose the 1G SFP GLC-BX-20D 20km 1550nm-TX/1310nm-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 1550nm-TX/1310nm-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-20D.
Standards and Compatibility
On the compatibility side, this unit is the practical equivalent of the Cisco part GLC-BX-20D 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-1G53-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.
Factory Custom Capability
Working directly with the manufacturer means no middleman limits. We support OEM and ODM projects, custom cable assemblies, alternative packaging and compatibility coding for major equipment vendors, with engineering support from the same team that designs our standard products.
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.
Quality Assurance
Before any product leaves our factory it goes through optical performance testing, compatibility verification on real switch platforms and a final visual inspection. Our in-house test lab holds a wide range of current and legacy switches from major brands, so interoperability is proven on the actual equipment your network uses rather than assumed from paper specifications.
Package
Products are first packed into blister trays or self-sealed bags and then into cartons. Standard labels and marks are applied by default, and customized packing and labeling are available on request.
