SFP module Lanview GLC-LH-SMD Compatible 1000Base-LX 1310nm 10km

Lanview compatible SFP module GLC-LH-SMD provides a compact, hot-pluggable optical interface for 1000Base-LX gigabit Ethernet links. Operating at a wavelength of 1310 nm, the module supports single-mode fiber connections with a reach of up to 10 km, making it suitable for uplinks and long-distance links between network equipment. The small form-factor pluggable design enables easy installation into switches, routers and media converters that accept standard SFP 1000Base-LX modules.

Advantages

The module delivers 1000Base-LX compatibility with 1310 nm transmission and a 10 km reach, offering a straightforward option for extending fiber connections without major hardware changes. Its hot-pluggable SFP form factor minimizes downtime during upgrades or replacements and supports interoperability with equipment that accepts standard SFP optics. The compact size reduces space requirements in densely populated chassis and allows flexible deployment across enterprise and campus networks.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches and routers over single-mode fiber for uplinks
• Extending fiber runs across campus or between buildings up to 10 km
• Media converters and access devices that accept SFP 1000Base-LX modules
• Replacing or expanding optical ports in enterprise networking equipment

Key specifications

• Standard: 1000Base-LX (Gigabit Ethernet)
• Wavelength: 1310 nm
• Maximum reach: up to 10 km over single-mode fiber
• Form factor: SFP (small form-factor pluggable), hot-pluggable
• Connector type: optical fiber (SFP optical interface)

How to use

Insert the Lanview GLC-LH-SMD SFP module into a compatible SFP slot on a switch, router or media converter while the device is powered on or off according to the host equipment guidelines. Connect single-mode fiber with appropriate LC or specified connector types to the module’s optical port, ensuring proper fiber type and polarity. Configure the host interface for gigabit operation if required by the device’s management interface. Monitor link indicators on the host equipment to confirm successful optical link establishment.

Usage recommendations

Use single-mode fiber of suitable quality and follow manufacturer guidelines for cleaning optical connectors before insertion. Verify compatibility with the host device’s SFP acceptance list and check link settings in the device management interface. Avoid bending fiber sharply and maintain recommended handling procedures to ensure reliable operation up to the specified 10 km reach.
