Model LREC6230PF-LX

  • Gigabit fibre link for secure long-distance networks with Intel I210 controller
  • PCIe 2.1 x1 interface delivers 1000Mbps throughput without bus bottleneck
  • Single-mode SC connector supports 30-year fibre lifespan and EMI immunity
  • Energy-efficient 802.3az compliance lowers power draw during idle periods

Single-port 1000BASE-LX fiber adapter

The LR-LINK LREC6230PF-LX is a PCIe x1 Gigabit Ethernet card built on the Intel I210 controller. It provides one SC connector for single-mode fibre, suited to desktop or server systems that need a dedicated 1000 Mbps optical link. Low-profile and full-height brackets are included for flexible mounting.

Upgrade from copper or 100 Mbps fibre

This card replaces a copper Gigabit NIC or an older 100 Mbps fibre adapter such as the 82574-based 9030 series. The jump is worthwhile when electromagnetic immunity, lightning protection or a 30-year fibre lifespan are required, and when the PCIe 2.1 x1 slot can supply 2.5 GT/s bandwidth.

Handles secure long-haul links; limited to one port

The adapter comfortably serves FTTD deployments, medical equipment and high-security environments operating between 0 °C and 55 °C with up to 90 % humidity. It runs out of headroom when a second fibre port or multi-mode connectivity is needed, as the design is single-port single-mode only.

Questions about this item

Does the card fit a low-profile chassis or do I need the full-height bracket?

Both a low-profile bracket and a full-height bracket are included so you can choose the one that matches your case.

The card uses a PCIe 2.1 x1 slot — do I need to enable anything in BIOS for it to be detected?

Enable the PCIe slot in BIOS and set the link speed to Gen 2 if it defaults to Gen 1; the Intel I210 controller then initialises without extra drivers on most modern operating systems.

The SC single-mode connector is rated for a 30-year fibre lifespan — what maintenance does the link need?

Inspect and clean the SC ferrule with a lint-free wipe and isopropyl alcohol whenever you reconnect the patch cord; no other scheduled maintenance is required.
