Axis Communications 5801-801 Sfp Module Lc Lx

Product Description

The AXIS COMMUNICATIONS 5801-801 is a small form-factor pluggable (SFP) fiber optic transceiver module designed for long-wavelength (LX) single-mode fiber connections using an LC connector interface. This module enables high-speed network data transmission over single-mode fiber runs, extending communication distances well beyond what copper cabling supports. It is used in structured cabling and IP network infrastructure projects where fiber backbone links are required. Network technicians and low-voltage cabling professionals install this module into compatible SFP-equipped switches, media converters, or network video recorders to establish fiber uplinks.

This SFP module is suited for commercial and enterprise network installations where single-mode fiber is already deployed or specified. Typical applications include IP surveillance network backbones, building automation data links, and campus-wide fiber infrastructure. The LC duplex connector format is standard in modern structured cabling environments. It ships as a single unit and is compatible with equipment that accepts industry-standard SFP form-factor modules with LX single-mode LC interfaces.

Key Features

• LX single-mode fiber support for extended transmission distances
• LC duplex connector interface, standard in structured fiber cabling
• SFP form factor fits standard SFP module slots on network equipment
• Designed for integration into IP network and surveillance infrastructure
• Sold as a single unit for precise quantity ordering on fiber uplink builds

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style SFP transceiver for use in network switches, media converters, and recording devices that accept standard SFP module slots with LX single-mode LC fiber interfaces.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified low-voltage network technician or licensed cabling professional. Power down or disable the SFP port on the host device before inserting or removing the module. Handle the LC fiber connectors carefully to avoid contamination, and always cap unused fiber ports when not in use. Follow applicable TIA-568 structured cabling standards and local low-voltage codes for fiber termination and routing.
