SFP-GIG-BX-U40: frequently asked questions
What is the Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise SFP-GIG-BX-U40?
The SFP-GIG-BX-U40 is an SFP 1000BASE-BX BiDi 40 km module for 1 Gbps Ethernet links. It plugs into an SFP / SFP+ port on an Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise OmniSwitch and is used for Gigabit uplinks, campus and inter-building fiber, server and access links on OmniSwitch 6360 / 6450 / 6560 / 6860 / 6900 switches.
What is the maximum distance of the SFP-GIG-BX-U40?
The vendor documentation lists the SFP-GIG-BX-U40 for 40km single-strand SMF.
Which fiber and connector does the SFP-GIG-BX-U40 need?
The SFP-GIG-BX-U40 uses an LC connector on single-mode fiber (OS2), single strand, at Tx 1310 nm / Rx 1490 nm. BiDi optics work in pairs over one fiber strand: install the U (upstream) version at one end and the D (downstream) version at the other.
Which OmniSwitch models support the SFP-GIG-BX-U40?
ALE lists its transceivers per switch family in each OmniSwitch datasheet and the AOS Transceivers Guide; the SFP-GIG-BX-U40 is listed in current (2024–2026) OmniSwitch datasheets. Send us your OmniSwitch model and AOS release and we check it before dispatch, so the port accepts the optic without a 'non-ALE transceiver' warning.
Can I use a third-party SFP instead of the ALE SFP-GIG-BX-U40?
OmniSwitch ports log a warning for non-ALE coded optics and ALE support may ask you to use ALE parts. Next Gen Networks supplies the genuine ALE SFP-GIG-BX-U40; if you want a lower-cost ALE-coded compatible module for non-critical links, ask us and we will quote both options.
Is your SFP-GIG-BX-U40 genuine ALE?
Yes. Next Gen Networks supplies original Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise parts, not third-party lookalikes or grey-market stock. Every unit is checked before dispatch and we share serial numbers on request so you can verify them in the switch or router transceiver inventory.
What is the SFP-GIG-BX-U40 price in India and how do I order?
The Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise SFP-GIG-BX-U40 price in India depends on quantity, delivery city and current stock. Next Gen Networks supplies it with a GST invoice (input tax credit ready) and pan-India dispatch from New Delhi. Send the part number, quantity and delivery city on WhatsApp +91-7827955775 or email Sales@nextgennetworks.in and we reply with a GST quote.
