StarTech LX-ST SFP for Palo Alto Networks

The StarTech LX-ST is a 1000Base-LX SFP transceiver built for Palo Alto Networks switches and routers. It provides 1 Gbps connectivity over single-mode fiber with an LC connector. Network engineers upgrading or expanding existing PAN-SFP-LX deployments use this module to add 10 km links. Buyers needing multi-mode fiber or 10 GbE speeds should select a different module.

Low power draw under 1.3W with hot-swap support

Typical power consumption stays below 1.3 watts during normal operation. The hot-swappable design allows insertion or removal without powering down the host device, so routine maintenance does not interrupt traffic. An MTBF of 634210013 hours indicates long-term reliability in continuous service. No active cooling is required for the module itself.

MSA compliant build with LC duplex interface

The transceiver meets Multi-Source Agreement standards for mechanical and electrical compatibility. Its compact form factor measures .49 by .54 by 2.23 inches and weighs .04 lbs. The LC duplex connector accepts standard single-mode patch cables for 1310nm wavelength links. Digital Diagnostics Monitoring is supported for real-time link health visibility. The package includes one SFP transceiver.

Questions about this item

How do I install the LX-ST SFP module and what step is commonly missed?

Insert the module into an SFP port until it clicks, then remove the dust caps and connect single-mode LC fiber; the step often missed is cleaning both connector end-faces before mating them.

What maintenance or replacement will the LX-ST need over time?

The module itself has no user-serviceable parts and a rated MTBF of 634210013 hours; plan only periodic inspection and cleaning of the LC connectors and patch cords.

What limit appears first on the LX-ST during sustained 1 Gbps traffic over 10 km?

The optical link budget for 1310 nm single-mode fiber at 10 km is the first constraint; power consumption stays below 1.3 W and the LC interface remains within MSA thermal limits.
