Product Overview
The EtherWAN EX-LS48-C3U-TI-N-CE is a hardened Gigabit SFP module for long-distance industrial Ethernet links over 9/125 µm single-mode fiber. It uses a single LC bidirectional optical connection, transmitting at 1550 nm and receiving at 1310 nm, with a specified reach of 60 km. Digital Diagnostic Monitoring (DDM) assists troubleshooting when supported by the host switch. Select a compatible complementary optic at the far end and verify the entire fiber link.
The EtherWAN EX-LS48-C3U-TI-N-CE is a hardened Gigabit single-mode SFP transceiver listed by Coremicro. EtherWAN specifies a 60 km distance, a single LC connector, 1550 nm transmit and 1310 nm receive wavelengths, DDM, a 23 dB optical link budget, -2 to +4 dBm optical output and -25 dBm receiver sensitivity. The operating temperature range is -40°C to +85°C. Confirm host compatibility, current price and the applicable manufacturer warranty before purchase.
60 km Single-Mode Fiber Reach
Specified for long-reach Gigabit Ethernet connectivity over 9/125 µm single-mode fiber. Check splice loss, connectors and the total optical budget before committing to a 60 km route.
Single LC Bidirectional Interface
A single LC connection carries traffic in both directions using different optical wavelengths. This is not a duplex-LC module; check the installed fiber arrangement and switch SFP compatibility.
1550 nm TX / 1310 nm RX
The module transmits at 1550 nm and receives at 1310 nm. The opposite end requires a compatible optic with complementary wavelength directions, such as a correctly specified 1310 nm TX / 1550 nm RX module.
DDM Optical Diagnostics
Digital Diagnostic Monitoring can expose transceiver readings in supported network equipment. The actual data shown depends on the host hardware and its management software.
Hardened Industrial Temperature Rating
The -40°C to +85°C operating range is intended for compatible industrial networking environments. The host switch, cabinet and other components must meet their own environmental limits.
23 dB Optical Link Budget
EtherWAN lists optical output power of -2 to +4 dBm and receiver sensitivity of -25 dBm. Plan for appropriate optical margin rather than treating the 60 km rating as a guaranteed distance.

What is the EtherWAN EX-LS48-C3U-TI-N-CE used for?
The EX-LS48-C3U-TI-N-CE is a hardened EtherWAN Gigabit SFP transceiver for single-mode fiber links rated up to 60 km. It uses a single LC interface and supports Digital Diagnostic Monitoring.
How far can this EtherWAN SFP transmit over single-mode fiber?
This EtherWAN SFP has a manufacturer-listed distance of 60 km over 9/125 µm single-mode fiber. Actual reach depends on total optical loss, available margin and compatible equipment.
Which wavelengths and connector does this BiDi module use?
This BiDi module transmits at 1550 nm and receives at 1310 nm through a single LC connector. The far-end optic must have complementary transmit and receive wavelengths.
Does the EX-LS48-C3U-TI-N-CE support DDM?
The EX-LS48-C3U-TI-N-CE supports Digital Diagnostic Monitoring. Diagnostic readings are available only when the host device exposes them.
Can this hardened SFP operate in industrial environments?
This hardened SFP has a specified operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. The connected switch and enclosure must also meet the environmental requirements.
What is the difference between the EX-LS48-C3U-TI-N-CE and EX-LS48-C3U-TI-N-EB?
The EX-LS48-C3U-TI-N-CE is a 60 km single-LC BiDi transceiver using 1550 nm transmit and 1310 nm receive wavelengths. The EX-LS48-C3U-TI-N-EB is rated for 70 km and uses duplex LC optics, so the modules are not direct substitutes.
Is Coremicro an authorized EtherWAN dealer?
