Installation is simple. This hot-swappable SFP module inserts directly into a compatible SFP port, so you usually do not need to power down the switch. Just connect your LC duplex SMF patch cable and verify link status and DOM readings.

Yes. The Alcatel-Lucent 3HE00028CA is a 1000Base-LX SFP transceiver designed for Gigabit Ethernet and Gigabit Fibre Channel. It uses 1310nm over single-mode fiber with an LC duplex connector and supports distances up to 10 km.

This SFP transceiver is built for reliable enterprise networking, with tested optical performance, unique serialization, and data-traffic validation. It uses FP/PIN optical components, supports DDM/DOM monitoring, and meets RoHS, IEC, and FDA laser safety compliance standards.

The module is programmed and tested before shipment to help ensure proper initialization and consistent performance. Optical transceivers like this are typically packed in protective anti-static packaging to help prevent shipping damage and contamination during transit.

If the link does not come up, confirm your device supports a 1.25Gb/s 1000Base-LX SFP, check that you are using single-mode fiber, clean the LC connectors, and verify the distance is within 10 km. You can also use DOM/DDM data to troubleshoot optical power levels.
