The JBX02270 1000BASE-LX SFP transceiver represents a dependable solution for organizations requiring long-distance gigabit fiber optic connectivity. This single-mode fiber (SMF) optical module is engineered to deliver consistent 1-gigabit data rates over distances reaching 10 kilometers, leveraging the proven 1310nm wavelength standard that minimizes signal dispersion and attenuation in singlemode applications. Key Technical Features: This transceiver utilizes a 9/125 micrometer singlemode fiber core, providing superior performance characteristics for extended-range transmissions. The Duplex LC/UPC connector configuration ensures minimal insertion loss and excellent return loss performance, critical factors in maintaining signal integrity across long fiber runs. Its compact SFP form factor enables flexible deployment in high-density network switch environments without requiring excessive port spacing. Compatibility and Standards: The JBX02270 is fully qualified to IEEE 802.3z gigabit Ethernet specifications and is explicitly compatible with Fortinet networking equipment, replacing the FN-TRAN-LX original equipment manufacturer part number. This compatibility makes it an excellent choice for organizations with existing Fortinet infrastructure seeking cost-effective transceiver upgrades or replacements. Robust Construction and Safety: Built with a durable metal case housing an integrated laser transmitter assembly, this optical transceiver withstands the rigors of data center and network rack environments. Comprehensive safety certifications including Class 1 Laser designation, TUV, UL/FDA compliance, and adherence to EU directive 2002/95/EC (RoHS) ensure safe operation and environmental responsibility. Operating Specifications: The module functions reliably across a 0 to 70°C temperature range, accommodating both standard air-conditioned data centers and less climate-controlled network closets. Its efficient power consumption and low-heat operation minimize cooling requirements and reduce total cost of ownership. Customization Options: Custom brand programming is available for organizations requiring OEM-specific labeling or configuration parameters, enabling seamless integration with branded equipment deployments. Value Proposition: With 90-day limited warranty protection, free standard shipping on qualifying orders, and availability from multiple U.S. fulfillment locations (Danville, CA and Beaufort, SC), the JBX02270 delivers enterprise-grade performance with practical purchasing convenience.
