GBIC For 2950 & 3550 1

[prabath]

Can anybody tell me the GBIC module use to connect
2950G 48 EI and 3550 12 G?
Both should equiped with theas GBICS which used to link by multimode fiber.
Thanks,

3550 should take a WS-G5484= for multi mode short haul for long haul 5486 on 2950 48 should be the same check this link for info

I posted this earlier in a different area, but thought you might find this useful:

There are (as far as I know) three different types of GBIC's, and here are some info about them:

1000BaseSX 850nm wavelength MM Fiber
1000BaseLX/LH 1300nm wavelength MM or SM Fiber
1000BaseZX 1500nm wavelength SM Fiber

1000BaseSX distance of 220 meters to 550 meters
1000BaseLX/LH distance of 550 meters to 10 kilometers
1000BaseZX distance of 70 kilometers to 100 kilometers
(distance varies with MM/SM, core size, and modal bandwidth)

1000BaseSX Cisco PN# WS-G5484
1000BaseLX/LH Cisco PN# WS-G5486
1000BaseZX Cisco PN# WS-G5487

There's also copper gigabit, but not sure the specs on it, but I think you have to have CAT5e or CAT6 cable and a distance up to 100 meters.

If anyone has any more GBIC info, I'd like to know, I'm working with a lot of gigabit stuff now (we're upgrading) and I'm learning new stuff.

Hope this helps.
