1. Mini Gigabit Interface Connector Mini GBIC Installation Note You can add and remove mini GBICs from your Extreme Networks switch without powering off the system There are two types of mini GBIC interfaces the LX mini GBIC which conforms to the 1OOOBASE LX standard and the SX mini GBIC which conforms to the 10O00BASE SX standard The mini GBIC connector which is shown in Figure 1 is the same for both types of mini GBIC interfaces XM_032 Figure 1 Mini GBIC module Mini GBICs are a Class 1 laser device Use only Extreme approved devices A Remove the LC fiber optic connector from the mini GBIC prior to removing the mini GBIC from the port A AAW Mini GBICs can emit invisible laser radiation Avoid direct eye exposure to beam A Ifyou see an amber blinking mini GBIC port status LED on your Extreme Networks switch or you receive an error message when you install a non Extreme supported mini GBIC you do not have an Extreme supported mini GBIC installed in your switch To correct this problem make sure you install an Extreme supported mini GBIC into the port on the switch To remove the mini GBIC connector gently push in the plastic tab at the bottom of the connector and pull the mini GBIC out of the port on the switch To insert a mini GBIC connector 1 Holding the mini GBIC by its sides insert the mini GBIC into the port on the switch 2 Slide the mini GBIC into the port until you hear it click Part Numbe
2. r 100099 00 Rev 02 1 LX Mini GBIC Specifications Table 1 describes the specifications for the LX mini GBIC interface Table 1 LX Mini GBIC Specifications Parameter Minimum Typical Maximum Transceiver Optical output power 9 5 dBm 3 dBm Center wavelength 1275 nm 1310 nm 1355 nm Receiver Optical input power sensitivity 23 dBm Optical input power maximum 3 dBm Operating wavelength 1270 nm 1355 nm General Total system budget 13 5 dBm Total optical system budget for the LX mini GBIC is 13 5 dBm Measure cable plant losses with a 1310 nm light source and verify this to be within budget When calculating the maximum distance attainable using optical cable with a specified loss per kilometer for example 0 25 dB km Extreme Networks recommends that 3 dBm of the total budget be reserved for losses induced by cable splices connectors and operating margin Thus 10 5 dBm remains available for cable induced attenuation There is no minimum attenuation or minimum cable length restriction SX Mini GBIC Specifications Table 2 describes the specifications for the SX mini GBIC interface Table 2 SX Mini GBIC Specifications Parameter Minimum Typical Maximum Transceiver Optical output power 9 5 dBm 4 dBm Center wavelength 830 nm 850 nm 860 nm Receiver Optical input power sensitivity 21 dBm Optical input power maximum 4 dBm Operating wavelength 830 nm 860 nm General Total system budget 11 5 dBm Total optical system b
3. udget for the SX mini GBIC is 11 5 dBm Extreme Networks recommends that 3 dBm of the total budget be reserved for losses induced by cable splices connectors and operating margin While 8 5 dBm remains available for cable induced attenuation the 1000Base SX standard specifies supported distances of 275 meters over 62 5 micron multimode fiber and 550 meters over 50 micron multimode fiber There is no minimum attenuation or minimum cable length restriction Mini Gigabit Interface Connector Mini GBIC Installation Note
