GLC-BX-D Use Case
High-Speed ISP Last-Mile Extension with GLC-BX-D-1000BASE-BX SFP (1490 nm)
An Internet Service Provider deploys the GLC-BX-D-1000BASE-BX SFP (1490 nm) to extend Gigabit Ethernet over a single fiber strand between its headend and remote distribution cabinets. By leveraging bi-directional transmission at 1490 nm, the ISP eliminates the need for dual-fiber infrastructure, cuts fiber leasing costs by up to 50%, and delivers consistent 1 Gbps bandwidth to underserved neighborhoods. Benefit: Reliable, cost-effective last-mile broadband extension that scales with customer demand.
Campus Inter-Building Backbone Connectivity Using Single-Fiber 1490 nm SFP
A university network team connects multiple academic buildings over a legacy single-strand fiber link using the GLC-BX-D-1000BASE-BX SFP (1490 nm). This bi-directional module transports 1 Gbps Ethernet traffic on one fiber, maximizing existing cabling assets and accelerating deployment. Outcome: Seamless, low-latency backbone that supports high-resolution video lectures, VoIP and research data transfer without new fiber installation.
Industrial IoT Data Aggregation in Smart Manufacturing Plants
An automotive manufacturer implements the GLC-BX-D-1000BASE-BX SFP (1490 nm) to link remote PLCs and edge-computing nodes across its production floor using a single optical fiber. The 1 Gbps bi-directional link ensures real-time telemetry and deterministic control signals with minimal electromagnetic interference. Benefit: Enhanced operational visibility, reduced cabling complexity, and rapid fault isolation for zero-downtime manufacturing workflows.

Questions & Answers
What is the Cisco GLC-BX-D 1000BASE-BX SFP, 1490 nm?
The Cisco GLC-BX-D is a single-fiber, bidirectional 1000BASE-BX SFP transceiver module transmitting at 1490 nm and receiving at 1310 nm for Gigabit Ethernet applications.
Which distance does the GLC-BX-D support?
The GLC-BX-D supports single-mode links up to 10 km over a single strand of fiber at 1490 nm wavelength.
Is the GLC-BX-D SFP hot-swappable?
Yes. The GLC-BX-D SFP module is hot-swappable, allowing insertion or removal without powering down the host device.
What interfaces are compatible with GLC-BX-D?
The GLC-BX-D is compatible with any Cisco or third-party switch, router, or media converter that supports 1000BASE-BX SFP modules.
What wavelength does the GLC-BX-D transmit and receive?
The GLC-BX-D transmits at 1490 nm and receives at 1310 nm over a single-mode fiber strand.
Can I mix GLC-BX-D and GLC-BX-U modules?
Yes. You must pair the GLC-BX-D (1490 nm TX/1310 nm RX) with the GLC-BX-U (1310 nm TX/1490 nm RX) for bidirectional communication.
What operating temperature range does the GLC-BX-D support?
The GLC-BX-D operates reliably from 0 °C to 70 °C (32 °F to 158 °F), covering standard commercial temperature requirements.
Does the GLC-BX-D support Digital Optical Monitoring (DOM)?
Yes. The GLC-BX-D supports SFF-8472 DOM for real-time monitoring of optical power, temperature, voltage, and laser bias current.
What form factor is the GLC-BX-D?
The GLC-BX-D uses the industry-standard SFP (Small Form-Factor Pluggable) form factor, compatible with 1 G Ethernet ports.
How do I install the GLC-BX-D module?
To install, insert the GLC-BX-D into a compatible SFP port until it clicks, then connect the single-mode fiber cable to the LC duplex connector.
What certifications does the GLC-BX-D have?
