Summary of Gigabit Ethernet (Gigabit Ethernet) optical fiber standards

1000Base-LX: uses a long-wavelength laser signal source and a long-wavelength laser (1310nm ). The maximum distance of a multi-mode optical fiber is 550 m, and that of a single mode is 5 km.

1000BASE-SX, which uses a short-wave laser signal source, can only use multimode optical fiber. 1000BASE-SX uses 62.5 μm Multimode Optical Fiber and 50 μm multimode optical fiber. The maximum transmission distance of 62.5 μm multi-mode optical fiber is 275 m, and the maximum transmission distance of 50 μm multi-mode optical fiber is 550 meters.

1000BASE-CX, copper cable. The maximum transmission distance is 25 meters.

1000Base-ZX, with a long wavelength laser (1550 nm), can span 70 km over a single-mode optical fiber link.

1000BASE-T, twisted pair port Ethernet, with a maximum transmission distance of 100 meters using unshielded twisted pair wires (Cat platinum 5, Cat platinum 5e, Cat platinum 6, or Cat platinum 7.

1000BASE-TX, twisted pair port Ethernet, with a maximum transmission distance of 100 meters using unshielded twisted pair wires (Cat IPv6, Cat ipv7.

1000BASE-FX, optical fiber port Ethernet, maximum transmission distance of 100 meters.
