Cisco GLC-SX-MMD Compatible SFP

This AddOn transceiver matches the Cisco GLC-SX-MMD part number and delivers 1000Base-SX performance over multimode fiber. It operates at 850nm wavelength with LC duplex connectors and supports link distances up to 550 metres. The module is TAA compliant and built to MSA standards for multi-vendor interoperability.

Switch Port And Fiber Checks

Verify that the target switch port accepts SFP modules and runs at 1 Gbps speed with 1000Base-SX optics. Confirm the installed cabling is multimode fiber with LC duplex terminations and that the planned link length stays within the 550 metre reach. The operating temperature range spans 0 to 70 Celsius, so ensure the chassis airflow meets that envelope.

Hot-Swap And DOM Benefits

The hot-swappable SFP form factor allows insertion or removal without powering down the switch, reducing maintenance downtime. Digital Optical Monitoring provides real-time visibility into received and transmitted optical power, temperature and voltage. Factory-loaded OEM configuration data enables the module to initialize identically to the original Cisco transceiver in mixed-vendor deployments.

Questions about this item

Does the AddOn GLC-SX-MMD-AO transceiver ship with any cables or patch cords included?

The transceiver is supplied as a standalone SFP module; multi-mode patch cables with LC connectors must be purchased separately to complete the link.

Should I choose this 550 m SX module or a longer-reach alternative for my network?

Select this 850 nm SX model when the link distance is 550 m or less over OM2 multi-mode fibre; for longer spans a LX or ZX module with a different wavelength is required.

What does the 1 Gbps transfer rate mean once the module is installed in a switch?

The port will negotiate a 1000 Mbps full-duplex Ethernet connection over multi-mode fibre up to 550 m, with DOM monitoring available for link health.
