GIC-19-AO – 1GBase-LX GBIC Transceiver | SMF SC Connector | 10km | TAA Compliant
The Addon GIC-19-AO is a high-performance, TAA-compliant 1GBase-LX GBIC Transceiver module designed for long-range fiber optic data transmission. It features an SC connector, supports single-mode fiber (SMF), and provides up to 10 km of transmission distance. This 1310 nm Transceiver is a cost-effective and reliable option for Gigabit Ethernet networking applications in data centers, campus networks, and government infrastructure. It is fully compliant with GBIC MSA and is programmed and tested for OEM-equivalent performance across a broad range of networking platforms.
Features
Developed to meet demanding infrastructure applications, the Addon GIC-19-AO supports full-duplex 1.25 Gbps link throughput with precision across long-distance single-mode fiber spans. Built in the standard GBIC form factor, it is hot-pluggable, enabling seamless module insertion or replacement without system interruption. EEPROM encoding is specifically matched to OEM signatures, ensuring universal interoperability across Cisco, HP/Aruba, Juniper, Brocade, and other GBIC-qualified platforms.
Advanced Options
Manufactured under strict ISO 9001 quality processes, the Transceiver undergoes rigorous optical testing—from eye-diagram stability and BER verifications to power-level evaluations—to guarantee consistent long-term performance. Integrated Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM) provides real-time status on optical input/output power, temperature, voltage, and laser bias, enabling proactive maintenance and simplified troubleshooting. The Addon emphasizes durability, offering consistent performance in enterprise, campus, and government labs—even in temperature-sensitive or high-EMI environments.

Reliability & Performance
The Addon GIC‑19‑AO delivers robust optical performance, making it ideal for 10 km SMF backbone, campus fabric, SAN uplinks, and extended Ethernet links. The 1310 nm long-wave laser is designed to maintain signal strength over long distances while reducing attenuation. Performance parameters such as BER rates, laser slope efficiency, and optical eye margins are factory-validated to lockstep with OEM references. Despite its compact form, this module integrates redundant safeguards, including laser power limit protection, automatic receiver-disable features, and temperature protection. Its comparatively low power consumption reduces thermal load in switch or router bay installations, while the ability to tap into live DDM data provides network administrators with immediate status insight—crucial for uptime-sensitive designs. Ideal for environments where compatibility and auditing matters (e.g., federal TAA regulations), the GIC‑19‑AO supports installation flexibility and future-proof deployment strategies with Addon trusted quality guarantee.
