Cisco-compatible SFP module

The StarTech.com GLCSXMMRGDST is a hot-pluggable SFP transceiver built to the IEEE 802.3z 1000BASE-SX standard. It delivers a 1.25 Gbps transfer rate over multimode fiber using an 850 nm wavelength and an LC duplex connector. The module is guaranteed 100 percent compatible with Cisco GLC-SX-MM-RGD equipment and carries a lifetime warranty with free lifetime technical support.

reach multimode links

This transceiver suits network engineers extending Gigabit Ethernet across campus or data-centre multimode runs up to 550 m (1804 ft). It operates from 0 °C to 70 °C (32 °F to 158 °F) and tolerates 5 to 95 percent relative humidity. Buyers who need single-mode reach, longer distances, or a different vendor-coded module should look at other SKUs.

Plug-and-play fibre uplink

Insert the module into any SFP port that accepts 1000BASE-SX optics; the hot-pluggable form factor allows installation without powering down the switch or router. A duplex LC patch cord of the appropriate multimode grade completes the link. The transceiver frees a copper port for other uses while providing a reliable fibre uplink for building-scale audio, video, or data traffic.

Questions about this item

What type of switch port or line card does the GLCSXMMRGDST need to be installed in?

The transceiver fits any standard SFP slot that supports 1.25 Gbps 1000BASE-SX operation and accepts an LC duplex connector.

Will the module link with an older 1000BASE-SX switch running at 850 nm over the same multimode fiber?

Yes, it complies with IEEE 802.3z so it will interoperate with any 1000BASE-SX port at 850 nm up to 550 m on multimode fiber.

How can I confirm the transceiver is operating correctly after insertion?

Check the switch port status for a valid 1 Gbps link light and verify the received optical power is within the 1000BASE-SX receive range.
