The Cisco GLC-TE is a high-performance 1000BASE-T SFP transceiver module, designed for Gigabit Ethernet over copper cabling.This versatile module allows you to implement Gigabit connections using standard Cat5e/6/7 copper cables, providing a cost-effective and flexible solution for short-reach data center, enterprise, and campus environments. It's an ideal choice for connecting Cisco Network Switch ports where fiber isn't available or necessary.
Cost-Effective Copper Connectivity
The GLC-TE enables Gigabit Ethernet over existing copper infrastructure, offering a straightforward way to achieve 1 Gbps speeds without the need for new fiber installations.It supports connections up to 100 meters over standard Category 5e, 6, or 7 unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) copper cabling.
Hot-Swappable and Easy Deployment
As an industry-standard SFP, the GLC-TE is hot-swappable, allowing for seamless integration and replacement without disrupting network operations.Its plug-and-play design ensures quick and easy deployment, minimizing downtime and simplifying network upgrades.
Broad Compatibility for Flexible Networking
This transceiver is designed to be compatible with a wide range of Cisco networking equipment that features SFP ports. This ensures flexible deployment across various platforms, from Cisco Network Switch models to routers, providing consistent Gigabit copper uplinks wherever needed.
Enhancing Branch & Data Center Links
The GLC-TE is perfect for short-distance connections within server racks, between adjacent switches, or for connecting a Cisco Network Switch to other copper-based devices. Its reliable performance also supports high-bandwidth connections, which can be essential for the backhaul infrastructure supporting Cisco Wireless AP deployments.
