1000BASE-SX/LX Network

2.3 1000BASE-SX/LX NETWORK
The removable GPIMs for the 6G306-06 provide a Gigabit Ethernet connection that, when using
the GPIM-01, GPIM-08, and GPIM-09, support fiber connections operating at 1000 Mbps
(1 Gbps). Other GPIMs may support different types of cabling connections. The device at the other
end of the fiber connection must meet IEEE 802.3z Gigabit Ethernet requirements for the devices
to operate at Gigabit speed. When connecting a 1000BASE-SX/LX segment to any of the module
ports (1 through 6), as installed, ensure that the network meets the Ethernet network requirements
of the IEEE 802.3z standard for 1000BASE-SX/LX. See
GPIMs.
