Network Transceiver for FastIron Switches

The Brocade E1MG-SX-OM-8 is a 1000BASE-SX SFP transceiver designed for data networking with compatible Brocade FastIron family switches. It provides a single LC port for connecting multi-mode optical fiber links in enterprise environments. This module suits administrators expanding Gigabit Ethernet connectivity over short-range fiber infrastructure.

Multi-Mode Fiber Compatibility

The decisive specification is support for multi-mode optical fiber at 1000Base-SX Gigabit Ethernet speeds. The transceiver operates with a single LC connector to establish a 1000 megabit link. It will not function on single-mode fiber or copper cabling, so the existing cable plant must match this multi-mode requirement.

Low-Power Hot-Pluggable Operation

As a standard SFP mini-GBIC module, it draws minimal power directly from the host switch port without an external supply. The hot-pluggable design allows installation or removal while the system runs, producing no audible noise and adding negligible thermal load to the chassis. Normal operation stays within the switch's standard SFP power budget.

Questions about this item

What throughput will I see from the 1000Base-SX link in a live network?

The transceiver runs at Gigabit Ethernet speed over multi-mode fibre, so a single 1000Base-SX port delivers up to 1000 Mbps of data networking bandwidth.

Which fibre connector and mode does the LC interface use?

It uses an LC duplex connector with multi-mode fibre, matching the 1000Base-SX standard for short-range links.

Will this SFP module fit a standard SFP slot in a FastIron switch?

Yes, the module follows the SFP mini-GBIC form factor and is listed as compatible with the FastIron family of switches.
