Quick Answer

Start with the target device, port, link distance, fiber type and document needs. Then use the article content below to narrow the model path before sending an RFQ.

GBIC is short for Gigabit Interface Converter,which is a standard optic transceiver that converts serial electric signals to serial optical signals and vice versa commonly used used to interface a fiber optic system with an Fibre Channel and Gigabit Ethernet. GBIC is hot-swappable transceiver with SC connector, it is also compatible with the Gigabit Ethernet definition IEEE802.3, 1000BASE-CX, Fibre Channel 100-TP-EL-S and 100-TW-EL-S inter-enclosure. It's commonly used with some former Ethernet Switch and other network equipment to reach a long transmission. The GBIC standard is defined by the Small Form Factor committee in SFF-8053. In the GBIC MSA SFF-8053,the mechanical interface,operational description,electronic specification was defined.
