1000BASE-SX/LX (FIBER)
The IEEE 802.3z taskforce has developed a gigabit Ethernet solution over fiber that supports half- and full-duplex transmission at
speeds of 1Gbps (1000mbps). The 1000BASE-SX standard was developed to support lower cost multimode fiber runs in horizontal and
shorter-length backbone applications. The 1000BASE-SX standard supports the multimode fiber distances shown in table 1. The
1000BASE-LX standard was developed to support longer-length multimode building fiber backbones and singlemode campus
backbones. The 1000BASE-LX standard supports multimode lengths of 550m and singlemode lengths of 3km.
