Connecting a Smart Ringswitch Gigabit Module to any Gigabit Ethernet device
The Smart Ringswitch Gigabit Module can connect to any Gigabit Ethernet device with SC fiber connectors.
Use either MultiMode fiber (SX) or SingleMode fiber (LX) according to Table 2.1. (SingleMode fiber is
only supported when using a separate outbound SX to LX converter.)
Note: Support for LX requires a separate outboard SX to LX converter. Check that the converter
supports extended format frames (many converters do not support over 4K frames). Madge is currently
testing third-party converters and details will be available on the Madge.connect website -
www.madgeconnect.com.
