Juniper Compatible SFP Transceiver

The StarTech.com EXSFP1GELXST is a hot-swappable SFP module built for 1000BASE-LX Gigabit Ethernet links. It targets network engineers and system integrators who need a drop-in replacement for the Juniper EX-SFP-1GE-LX in switches and routers. The transceiver also functions in MSA-compliant equipment from other vendors that accept uncoded modules.

LC Duplex Single Mode Build

A single LC duplex female receptacle connects to standard single mode fibre patch cords. The housing meets the SFP multi-source agreement form factor, so installation and removal require no tools and cause no service interruption. Digital Diagnostic Monitoring reports real time status to SNMP management tools, simplifying link troubleshooting and inventory audits.

0 to 70 Celsius Operating Range

The module operates from 0 to 70 degrees Celsius and survives storage from minus 40 to 85 degrees Celsius at 5 to 95 percent relative humidity. Power draw stays within the SFP MSA envelope, so no extra cooling or power budget changes are needed. DDM telemetry lets administrators watch temperature and voltage trends before they affect link stability.

Questions about this item

What distance does the 1000BASE-LX standard on this module actually reach?

The EXSFP1GELXST is rated for 10 km (6.2 mi) over single-mode fibre at 1310 nm, matching the IEEE 802.3z 1000BASE-LX reach specification.

What connector and fibre type must I have to plug this transceiver in?

It uses an LC duplex female port and requires single-mode fibre (SMF) patch cables with LC connectors on both ends.

How do I install the module in a Juniper switch, and what step is often missed?

Insert the hot-swappable SFP into an open slot until it clicks, then connect the LC cables; the step often missed is enabling Digital Diagnostic Monitoring in the switch OS so the DDM data (temperature, voltage, optical power) is reported to SNMP tools.
