Product Identity
Extreme Networks 10056H is a 1000Base-BX-D SFP transceiver designed for use with Extreme Networks switches and I/O modules. It provides a single LC single-fibre bidirectional Gigabit Ethernet link for network uplinks or interconnects.
Target Use
This module suits administrators who need a hot-swappable single-fibre Gigabit uplink on compatible Extreme Networks hardware. It is not for networks that require dual-fibre SR or LR optics, higher speeds such as 10 GbE, or direct-attach copper SFP cables.
Deciding Specification
The defining parameter is the single 1000Base-BX-D interface using one LC connector for bidirectional transmission. Confirm the switch port supports BX-D wavelength pairing before ordering.

Questions about this item
What standard does the 1000Base-BX-D interface on the 10056H use, and what distance does it cap in practice?
The 10056H uses the 1000Base-BX-D standard for single-fibre bidirectional Gigabit Ethernet links; the practical reach is set by the specific optic's rated distance.
What physical slot and connector does the 10056H need to fit and mount?
The 10056H is an SFP mini-GBIC module with an LC duplex connector; it fits any standard SFP cage that accepts 1000Base-BX-D optics.
How is the 10056H installed, and what step do people often get wrong?
Insert the 10056H into a powered SFP cage until it clicks, then connect the LC single-fibre patch cord matching the BX-D wavelength pair; the common mistake is reversing the TX and RX fibres.
