Addon
WS‑G5486‑AO Compatible with Cisco WS‑G5486, 1000Base‑LX GBIC Transceiver, Single‑Mode Fiber 10 km, SC Connector
The Addon WS‑G5486‑AO is a fully compatible replacement for the Cisco WS‑G5486 GBIC Transceiver, engineered to deliver Gigabit Ethernet over long-haul single-mode optical links. Supporting 1000Base‑LX transmission over SMF with a maximum reach of up to 10 km via duplex SC connectors, it uses a 1310 nm wavelength laser for stable, low-error signal delivery. This plug-and-play module is factory-programmed, uniquely serialized, and tested for compatibility with Cisco and MSA-compliant ports, ensuring flawless integration into enterprise network installations and fiber backbone infrastructures.
Features
Designed to meet or exceed Cisco OEM specifications, the WS‑G5486‑AO adheres to SFF‑8053 (mini‑GBIC) MSA standards and offers hot-swappable convenience for field maintenance or network upgrades. Its rugged metal housing provides EMI shielding and thermal stability in high-density switch chassis. Each module undergoes factory-level serialization and traffic testing to ensure immediate port recognition and consistent link behavior
Advanced Options
With support for both 1000Base‑LX and LH standards over 9/125 µm SMF, the Transceiver is ideal for inter-building connections, campus backbone links, and enterprise WAN backhaul deployments. It is TAA compliant and RoHS certified, making it suitable for public sector and regulated procurement.
