- Ethernet 1000Base-ZX Cabling
- Supports Gigabit Ethernet Networking
- Data Transfer Speeds up to 1Gbps
The ONS-GC-GE-ZX-AX is an Axiom Gigabit Interface Converter (GBIC) 1000BASE-ZX transceiver that supports up to 100-km link spans with single-mode fiber. A GBIC is a hot-swappable input/output device that plugs into a Gigabit Ethernet port or slot, linking the port with the network. This Axiom GBICs can be interchanged on a wide variety of Cisco products and can be intermixed in combinations of 1000BASE-T, 1000BASE-SX, 1000BASE-LX/LH, 1000BASE-ZX, 1000BASE-CWDM, or 1000BASE-DWDM interfaces on a port-by-port basis.
The Axiom ONS-GC-GE-ZX-AX fully complies with the IEEE 802.3z 1000BaseLX standard. Each Axiom transceiver is pre-configured and factory loaded with Cisco specific application code required for Cisco IOS, SMARTnet compliance, and supports the Cisco quality ID feature. Axiom transceivers are tested to perform functionally identical to the "original" transceiver. Complying fully with the Multi-Source Agreement (MSA) enables this transceiver to work in all MSA complaint platforms as well as function with other manufacturer's brands within the same network.
