Product Review

The Cisco DWDMGBIC5979 provides a data transfer rate of 1.25 Gbps over a single-mode fiber, with a maximum distance reach of 80 km, ideal for long-distance networking needs. Its use of the 1559.79 nm wavelength within the Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) system allows for high-capacity data transmission, enhancing network efficiency. However, the reliance on the older GBIC form factor may limit compatibility with newer hardware that primarily supports SFP or SFP+ modules, potentially restricting its use in modern network upgrades or expansions.

Overview

The Cisco DWDMGBIC5979 transceiver module is designed to deliver high-speed data transmission over single-mode fiber, providing a reliable solution for expanding your network capabilities. This module is compatible with the Dense Wavelength-Division Multiplexing (DWDM) technology, which is essential for achieving high bandwidth over long distances. The DWDMGBIC5979 operates at a data transfer rate of 1.25 Gbps, ensuring efficient data flow for various networking needs. This transceiver uses a specific light wavelength of 1559.79 nm for signal transmission, which is a key feature of DWDM technology allowing multiple signals to be transmitted simultaneously over the same fiber strand without interference. The use of this technology significantly enhances the capacity and bandwidth of existing fiber infrastructure, making it an ideal solution for networks that demand high data rates. The Cisco DWDMGBIC5979 is designed for 1000Base-DWDM networks and comes equipped with a duplex SC connector, which provides a secure and stable connection to the fiber network. The SC connector type is widely used in fiber optic networks for its reliability and ease of use. The module's design focuses on ensuring compatibility and optimal performance with Cisco networking equipment, allowing for seamless integration into existing network setups. Furthermore, the module is built for single-mode fiber (SMF) use, capable of transmitting data over distances up to 80 km. This long-distance capability makes the DWDMGBIC5979 an excellent choice for connecting disparate network segments or extending the reach of a metropolitan area network (MAN). The ability to operate over such distances without signal degradation is critical for maintaining high-speed connectivity between remote locations. Key hardware specifications of the Cisco DWDMGBIC5979 include:
  • Data Transfer Rate: 1.25 Gbps
  • Wavelength: 1559.79 nm
  • Max. Distance: 80 km
The module's GBIC (Gigabit Interface Converter) form factor ensures compatibility with a wide range of networking equipment, providing flexibility in deployment. The GBIC design allows for hot-swapping, enabling network administrators to add or replace modules without interrupting the network service. This feature is particularly useful for maintaining and upgrading network infrastructure with minimal downtime. In summary, the Cisco DWDWGBIC5979 transceiver module offers a high-performance, long-distance solution for expanding network capabilities through DWDM technology. Its support for a data transfer rate of 1.25 Gbps, operation over single-mode fiber, and compatibility with duplex SC connectors make it a versatile choice for network administrators looking to enhance their network's capacity and reach. Whether for connecting data centers, extending metropolitan networks, or integrating high-speed internet access, the DWDMGBIC5979 provides a reliable foundation for advanced networking applications.
