OPENGEAR 569025 TRANSCEIVER LX/LH SFP 10KM

The Opengear 569025 is a 1000Base-LX/LH SFP optical transceiver for single-mode fiber, suitable for network administrators connecting compatible Opengear IM7200 Infrastructure Managers over links specified for up to 10 km.

Recommended For

• Network administrators adding or replacing a fiber uplink in a compatible Opengear appliance, especially an IM7200, for a 1GbE network connection.
• IT teams connecting compatible Opengear management equipment across an existing single-mode fiber run, for links within the module’s stated 10 km range.
• Data-center and enterprise network operators who need a fiber Ethernet connection for compatible Opengear infrastructure or console-management equipment.

Real-World Use Scenarios

• When an Opengear console server needs to join a management network over fiber rather than copper, install the SFP in a compatible port and connect it to the fiber link. On IM7200 ports that pair SFP and RJ45 connections, the fiber connection takes priority over the paired copper port.
• For a remote equipment room or network closet connected to the main site by single-mode fiber, use the module to link a compatible Opengear management device to the site network. This can make its remote-management interfaces reachable without running copper Ethernet between locations, provided the fiber path and link budget are suitable.
• When a network team places Opengear in a remote site or fiber hut, this SFP can provide the device’s Ethernet connection back to a reachable management network. The likely benefit is access to the console server from elsewhere on the network; actual access depends on the site’s routing and management-network setup.
• For an out-of-band management design that carries traffic over a separate fiber network, use the SFP connection as the Opengear device’s Ethernet path into that network. It can support remote console access when the separate path is connected and configured, but the transceiver itself does not create an independent management network.
