As an MSA-certified component, it ensures high standards of quality and interoperability, serving as a direct and cost-effective alternative for Cisco GLC-FE-100FX equipment in professional networking environments.

Advantages

This transceiver module offers exceptional reliability for data transmission over fiber optic cables. Its hot-plug capability allows for easy installation and replacement without the need to power down network switches or routers, minimizing downtime during maintenance or upgrades. The compact design ensures it fits standard SFP ports, while its full compatibility with Cisco hardware guarantees consistent performance and seamless integration into complex network architectures.

Suitable for

• Fast Ethernet fiber optic network connections
• Upgrading existing Cisco network infrastructure
• Professional data center and enterprise networking environments
• Long-distance data transmission where fiber optics are required

This module may not be suitable for applications requiring Gigabit Ethernet speeds, as it is specifically limited to 155 Mbit/s. It is also not intended for use with copper-based Ethernet cabling or non-SFP compatible hardware interfaces.

Key specifications

• Data transfer rate: 155 Mbit/s
• Wavelength: 1310 nm
• Interface: SFP
• Fiber type: Multimode/Singlemode compatibility
• Hot-plug support: Yes
• Dimensions: 13.4 mm x 56.5 mm x 8.5 mm

To use the module, simply insert it into an available SFP slot on your network switch or router. The device is hot-swappable, meaning it can be inserted while the equipment is running. Once inserted, connect the appropriate fiber optic cable to the LC interface. The network device should automatically detect the module and establish a link, provided the configuration settings on the switch port match the required speed and protocol.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your network switch or router has an available SFP port
• Ensure your fiber optic cabling matches the LC connector type
• Confirm that your network requirements do not exceed the 155 Mbit/s speed limit
• Check compatibility with your specific switch model firmware

For optimal performance, ensure that the fiber optic connectors are clean and free of dust before insertion. Always follow the manufacturer's guidelines for your specific network hardware when configuring port settings to ensure stable connectivity.
