The Cisco WS-G5486-RF is an expansion module designed for networking environments seeking to optimise data management capabilities. This module operates as a key component for connecting network switches and routers, specifically through its fibre-based interface. The module is built to be fully compatible with the Gigabit Interface Converter (GBIC) standard, ensuring high-speed data transmissions of up to 1 Gbps (Gigabit per second) over fibre optic cables. This makes it suitable for high-demand applications and network centres requiring robust, high-speed communication links.
The WS-G5486-RF supports long wavelength/long haul (LX/LH) optical transmissions, enabling it to cover distances of up to 10 kilometres on single-mode fibre. Additionally, it can also work with multi-mode optical fibre cabling, which makes it highly flexible for various networking setups. The module employs SC type connectors, which are widely used and provide robust, secure fibre connections.
Designed mainly for use within Cisco systems, the WS-G5486-RF is compatible with a broad range of Cisco devices, allowing for seamless upgrades and system expansions. As a refurbished unit, denoted by the "-RF", this module has undergone Cisco’s rigorous refurbishment process to ensure it meets all the necessary quality and performance standards. Furthermore, it supports hot-swappable installation, so it can be replaced or installed without powering down the entire system, adding a layer of convenience for IT managers and network engineers.
