Description
Product Overview
The EtherWAN EX-LS38-C3U-TI-N-CE is a hardened Gigabit SFP optical transceiver for long-distance links over 9/125 µm single-mode fiber. It provides a rated 60 km reach with a single LC bidirectional (BiDi) connection, transmitting at 1310 nm and receiving at 1550 nm. Digital Diagnostic Monitoring (DDM) supports optical readings through compatible network hardware, while its -40°C to +85°C rating suits properly specified industrial environments. Verify the remote optic, host support and full optical link before purchase.
The EtherWAN EX-LS38-C3U-TI-N-CE is a hardened 1.25G-class Gigabit SFP transceiver listed by Coremicro. EtherWAN specifies 60 km reach over 9/125 µm single-mode fiber, a single LC connector, TX 1310 nm and RX 1550 nm wavelengths, DDM, a 24 dB optical link budget, 0 to +5 dBm output power and -24 dBm receiver sensitivity. The hardened temperature range is -40°C to +85°C. Coremicro displays Special Order and Authorized Dealer designations. Confirm exact host and complementary optic compatibility, fulfillment and warranty coverage.
60 km Single-Mode Fiber Reach
The rated 60 km reach supports long-distance Gigabit fiber links over 9/125 µm single-mode fiber. Check attenuation, connector and splice losses, and sufficient optical margin for the complete installed route.
1310 nm TX / 1550 nm RX BiDi Optics
The transceiver transmits at 1310 nm and receives at 1550 nm over one fiber strand. Use a compatible far-end transceiver with complementary 1550 nm transmit and 1310 nm receive wavelengths, and verify the complete optical path.
Single LC Gigabit SFP Interface
A single LC connector carries bidirectional signals on one single-mode fiber using different wavelengths. Check the host Gigabit SFP port, installed fiber arrangement, and remote module rather than assuming a connector match guarantees compatibility.
Digital Diagnostic Monitoring
Digital Diagnostic Monitoring (DDM) allows supported network switches and media converters to expose available optical diagnostics. The actual readings depend on the host hardware and its management interface.
Hardened -40°C to +85°C Operation
The hardened TI transceiver is specified for -40°C to +85°C operation. The host switch, enclosure and power components must also meet the environmental limits of the installed system.
24 dB Optical Link Budget
EtherWAN lists a 24 dB optical link budget, 0 to +5 dBm output power and -24 dBm receiver sensitivity. Calculate the full link loss and retain margin; the nominal 60 km reach is not a guarantee for every installed fiber route.

What is the EtherWAN EX-LS38-C3U-TI-N-CE used for?
The EtherWAN EX-LS38-C3U-TI-N-CE is a hardened Gigabit SFP transceiver for 9/125 µm single-mode fiber links rated up to 60 km. It uses a single LC BiDi connector, DDM and a -40°C to +85°C operating range.
How far can this EtherWAN Gigabit SFP transmit?
This EtherWAN Gigabit SFP has a manufacturer-rated reach of 60 km over 9/125 µm single-mode fiber. Actual distance depends on fiber attenuation, total connector and splice loss, available optical margin and compatible equipment.
Which wavelengths and connector does the EX-LS38-C3U-TI-N-CE use?
The EX-LS38-C3U-TI-N-CE transmits at 1310 nm and receives at 1550 nm through a single LC connector. A compatible far-end BiDi optic must use complementary 1550 nm TX and 1310 nm RX wavelengths.
Does the EX-LS38-C3U-TI-N-CE support DDM?
The EX-LS38-C3U-TI-N-CE supports Digital Diagnostic Monitoring (DDM). Optical readings are available only when the host switch or media converter exposes them.
Can this hardened EtherWAN TI SFP operate in extreme temperatures?
This hardened EtherWAN TI SFP is specified for -40°C to +85°C operation. Its host equipment, enclosure and other components must also be rated for the intended environment.
How does the EX-LS38-C3U-TI-N-CE differ from the EX-LS48-C3U-TI-N-CE?
The EX-LS38-C3U-TI-N-CE transmits at 1310 nm and receives at 1550 nm, while the EX-LS48-C3U-TI-N-CE transmits at 1550 nm and receives at 1310 nm. Both are hardened 60 km single-LC models with DDM. Verify host support and optical power specifications before pairing them.
Is Coremicro an authorized EtherWAN dealer?
Coremicro displays an Authorized Dealer designation on its EtherWAN product listing. Buyers should confirm current authorization, product availability, warranty eligibility and support terms directly with Coremicro.
