Guaranteed to transmit global Ethernet up to 300 meters, GPAdvantage family of high data rate, craft-friendly fiber-optic cables exceed present 62.5 µm distances outlined in the IEEE 802.3z standard. For all types of indoor and outdoor designs these cables transmit Gigabit Ethernet up to 300 meters at 850 nm (SX) and up to 550 meters at 1300 nm (LX). SX is often chosen for is lower cost of transceivers.
