Allied Telesis AT-SPLX10/I – Industrial 1000BASE-LX 10km SFP

Overview

The Allied Telesis AT-SPLX10/I is a 1000BASE-LX SFP transceiver built for Gigabit Ethernet fibre connectivity in industrial and outdoor environments. It supports up to 10 kilometres over single-mode fibre using a 1310nm wavelength and LC duplex connector. The industrial temperature rating of -40°C to +85°C makes it appropriate for deployments in factory floors, utility infrastructure, transportation networks, and outdoor enclosures where standard commercial transceivers are not rated. Hot-swap support allows field replacement without disrupting the host platform.

Description

Where the standard AT-SPLX10 covers typical access and distribution links, the AT-SPLX10/I extends that capability into environments with extreme temperature variation. Industrial sites frequently involve switching equipment installed in outdoor cabinets, trackside enclosures, or near heat-generating machinery — all locations where a -0°C to +70°C commercial transceiver could fail or operate outside specification. The AT-SPLX10/I's extended temperature rating ensures consistent link operation across the full environmental range without derating. It delivers 1000 Mbps over 10km of OS1 or OS2 single-mode fibre, making it viable for inter-building links, ring topologies, and long-haul access segments within an industrial campus. The LC duplex connector is a standard interface compatible with installed single-mode patch panels and distribution frames. The 1310nm wavelength avoids conflict with CWDM or 1490/1550nm wavelengths used in WDM applications on the same fibre plant. Allied Telesis designs this transceiver to be fully compatible with its own switch, router, and media converter platforms. Hot-swap capability is retained, which is critical in industrial environments where unplanned downtime carries operational cost.

Key Features

• Industrial Temperature Range (-40°C to +85°C): Rated for extreme environments where commercial-grade transceivers are out of specification, including outdoor enclosures and industrial automation sites.
• 1000BASE-LX, 10km Single-Mode: Delivers full Gigabit Ethernet throughput over single-mode fibre at distances appropriate for inter-building and campus-scale links.
• 1310nm Wavelength: Standard SMF wavelength compatible with OS1/OS2 fibre and widely available single-mode patch cords.
• LC Duplex Connector: Industry-standard connector for straightforward integration into existing fibre distribution infrastructure.
• Hot-Swappable SFP: Can be replaced under power to minimise downtime in always-on industrial networks.
• Allied Telesis Platform Compatibility: Tested and warranted for use with Allied Telesis switches, routers, and media converters with SFP slots.
