Cisco GLC-LH-SMD SFP Transceiver

Product Overview

Cisco GLC-LH-SMD is a hot-swappable Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) transceiver with high-performance that provides a reliable Gigabit Ethernet (1GbE) connectivity over single-mode fiber (SMF). This module can be used in ideal environments such as enterprise networks, data centers, and service provider networks, to aid in the transmission of data over long distances and offers low latency and strong signal integrity. It provides an easy integration with the Cisco networking equipment, thus it is a practical solution to the network growth, upgrades, and high-performance connections.

Key Features and Benefits

• Gigafinethernet Performance – Provides a 1GbE-based recurring connection, which guarantees the blistering speed of data transfer over the network settings.
  
  

• Single-Mode Fiber Compatibility - Supports 1310nm wavelength, which supports long-distance communication when used on a common SMF infrastructure.
  
  

• Long Reach - Supports lengths as long as 10 kilometers, so it is ideal for use at a campus, metro, and long-haul network.
  
  

• Hot-Pluggable Design- Easy to install and replace without affecting network operations, minimizing downtime.
  
  

• Digital Diagnostics - An Earth station with digital diagnostics will allow real-time monitoring of such parameters as power output, signal loss, and temperature of the optical components, to manage the network proactively.
  
  

• Cisco Compatibility- Compatible with the entire Cisco switch and router product line and fully compatible with the Cisco IOS.
