1000BASE-BX DDI SFP specifications
The 1000BASE-BX bidirectional SFPs (part numbers AA1419069-E6 and
AA1419070-E6) provide Gigabit Ethernet connectivity over a single fiber.
Figure 6
1000BASE-BX
As shown in the previous figure, the transmit (Tx) and receive (Rx) paths
share the same fiber by using two different wavelengths. One model
transmits at 1310 nm and receives at 1490 nm, while the mating model
transmits at 1490 nm and receives at 1310 nm. You can only connect a
mating pair.
You can use 1000BASE-BX SFPs to double the number of your fiber links.
For example, if you have 20 installed fiber pairs with 20 conventional ports
connected, you can use 1000BASE-BX SFPs to expand to 40 ports, using
the same fiber.
