Cisco GLC-SX-MM Overview
The GLC-SX-MM is a Cisco 1000BASE-SX SFP (Small Form-Factor Pluggable) transceiver module designed for short-reach Gigabit Ethernet applications over multimode fiber (MMF). It is commonly used in data centers, enterprise networks, and other environments where high-speed fiber-optic connections are needed.
Some Product Features :
- Speed:
- Supports 1 Gbps (Gigabit Ethernet) data rates.
- Transmission Distance:
- Maximum distance of up to 550 meters (1,804 feet) on 50-micron multimode fiber (MMF).
- Maximum distance of up to 220 meters (722 feet) on 62.5-micron multimode fiber.
- Wavelength:
- Uses a wavelength of 850 nm, which is typical for short-range optical transmission over MMF.
- Connector Type:
- Standard LC duplex connector for connecting to fiber-optic cables.
- Power Consumption:
- Typical power consumption is around 1W, making it energy-efficient for data transmission.
- Temperature Range:
- Operating temperature range is from 0°C to 70°C (32°F to 158°F), which makes it suitable for most standard environments.
- Compatibility:
- Compatible with a wide range of Cisco switches, routers, and network devices that support SFP modules.
Use Cases :
- Gigabit Ethernet networks in data centers or office environments
- Short to medium-range links over multimode fiber (MMF)
- Easy installation in SFP ports of switches or routers
- A reliable option for upgrading or replacing faulty transceivers
Why GLC‑SX‑MM?
- Fully compliant with IEEE 802.3z and Cisco standards
- High build quality with metal housing to reduce electromagnetic interference (EMI)
- Suitable operating temperature for typical commercial environments
- Compatible with a wide range of multi-vendor network infrastructures
- Some variants support DDM/DOM, which is useful for monitoring and diagnostics
The GLC-SX-MM transceiver is ideal for providing high-speed Gigabit Ethernet connections between network devices (switches, routers) over short distances in your network, using multimode fiber. It’s a reliable, widely-used component for connecting devices within a data center or across enterprise floors with distances up to 550 meters.
