1000BASE-LX Models
The 450-1LX and 450-1LR MDAs provide 1000BASE-LX (1300 nanometers,
long wavelength, Gigabit Ethernet) connectivity. The 450-1LX provides one
1000BASE-LX port. The 450-1LR provides one 1000BASE-LX port and one
LinkSafe redundant port.
Operating Range
Table B-5 lists the operating range for the 1000BASE-LX models.
