1000BASE-LX Multimode Applications

For 1000BASE-LX multimode applications, the longwave

gigabit transceivers must be mode conditioned externally

via a special offset SMF/MMF patch cord. The offset

SMF/MMF patch cord allows the same transceiver to be

used for both multimode and single-mode fiber. See your

Nortel Networks sales representative for more information

about the SMF/MMF patch cord.

The 1000BASE-LX transceiver is designed to

mechanically accommodate the single-mode ferrules used

on one end of the special offset SMF/MMF patch cord.

Multimode ferrules must not be used because they can

bind and cause damage to the transceiver. Do not connect

multimode cables directly into the 1000BASE-LX MDA

transceiver. Instead, connect a special offset SMF/MMF

patch cord into the transceiver, and then connect the

multimode cable into the SMF/MMF patch cord.

For more information about gigabit transmission over fiber

optic cable and mode conditioning, refer to the following
