Overview Of GLC-SX-MMD
The Cisco GLC-SX-MMD Compatible 1000BASE-SX SFP Transceiver Module is a high-performance, hot-swappable device designed for Gigabit Ethernet connectivity over multimode fiber (MMF). Operating at a wavelength of 850nm, the Cisco GLC-SX-MMD supports link lengths up to 550 meters over OM2 MMF, making it ideal for short-range data transmission in data centers, enterprise networks, and campus deployments. With Digital Optical Monitoring (DOM) capability, the GLC SX MMD provides real-time monitoring of critical parameters, enhancing network reliability and diagnostics.
Featuring low power consumption of less than 1W and an industrial temperature range of -40°C to 85°C (-40°F to 185°F), this transceiver ensures prolonged service life and is suitable for both indoor and outdoor environments. Compliant with IEEE 802.3z standards and SFP MSA specifications, it guarantees compatibility with a wide range of Cisco switches, routers, servers, and network interface cards (NICs). The GLC-SX-MMD module is a cost-effective solution that combines performance, reliability, and flexibility for modern networking needs.
