The JBX02214 1000BASE-BX80-U SFP Transceiver represents a powerful solution for organizations requiring extended-reach optical connectivity without enterprise-level pricing. This module is specifically engineered to handle long-distance singlemode fiber applications, delivering gigabit-speed performance across 80-kilometer spans—substantially exceeding standard short-reach SFP limitations. **Technical Excellence & Compatibility** This transceiver implements proven bidirectional (BiDi) transmission architecture, enabling simultaneous send and receive operations over a single fiber strand via wavelength division multiplexing. It transmits at 1490nm and receives at 1550nm, optimizing fiber bandwidth while maintaining signal integrity. The module qualifies to extended-reach BiDi specifications beyond standard IEEE 802.3ah requirements, demonstrating superior engineering. Full compatibility with Cisco GLC-BX-U80 modules ensures drop-in replacement capability, eliminating costly network redesigns. The simplex LC/UPC connector provides industry-standard connectivity recognized across enterprise networking equipment. **Durability & Compliance** Constructed with a robust metal case and precision laser transmitter assembly, this transceiver withstands demanding network environments. It maintains full compliance with RoHS/ELV directives (EU 2002/95/EC) and carries comprehensive safety certifications including Class 1 Laser designation and FDA compliance under 21CFR 1040.10. **Ideal Applications** Perfect for metropolitan area networks (MANs), campus interconnects, and remote site connectivity where fiber distances exceed standard SFP capabilities. Particularly valuable for telecommunications infrastructure, data center extensions, and mission-critical long-distance links requiring reliable gigabit connectivity. **Specifications at a Glance** - Distance: 80km over singlemode fiber (9/125μm) - Data Rate: 1 Gbps (1000BASE-BX80-U) - Wavelengths: TX 1490nm / RX 1550nm - Connector: Simplex LC/UPC - Operating Temperature: 0-70°C (32-158°F) - Form Factor: SFP module (5x4x2mm) - Standards: SFF-8472, IEEE 802.3 compliant - Warranty: 90 days limited **Value Proposition** Ships from U.S. locations (Danville, CA and Beaufort, SC) with free standard shipping on orders exceeding $99.
