Cisco GLC-TE 1000BASE-T Standard Copper SFP Transceiver Module
by Cisco
The Cisco GLC-TE is a 1000BASE-T copper Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) transceiver module. It is designed to provide Gigabit Ethernet connectivity over twisted-pair copper cables. The GLC-TE module allows network devices, such as switches, routers, and firewalls, with SFP slots to connect to Gigabit Ethernet networks using standard Category 5e or Category 6 copper cables.
- Interface: The GLC-TE module has an LC duplex connector for connecting the module to the network device's SFP slot. On the other end, it has an RJ-45 connector for connecting to the copper Ethernet cable.
- Data Rate: The GLC-TE supports a data rate of 1000 Mbps (1 Gbps). It is compatible with Gigabit Ethernet networks.
- Cable Compatibility: It supports standard Category 5e (Cat5e) and Category 6 (Cat6) twisted-pair copper cables, which are commonly used in Ethernet networks. The maximum cable length supported is up to 100 meters.
- Hot-Swappable: The GLC-TE module is hot-swappable, which means it can be inserted or removed from a compatible SFP slot without powering down the network device.
- Cisco Compatibility: The GLC-TE is a Cisco-compatible transceiver module. It is designed to work with Cisco networking equipment that supports SFP modules.
- Plug-and-Play: The GLC-TE module is a plug-and-play device, meaning it requires no additional configuration or software installation. Once inserted into a compatible SFP slot, it should be automatically recognized and configured by the network device.

Description
Cisco GLC-TE 1000BASE-T Standard Copper SFP Transceiver Module
The Cisco GLC-TE is a 1000BASE-T standard copper Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) transceiver module manufactured by Cisco Systems. It is designed to provide Gigabit Ethernet connectivity over twisted-pair copper cables.
Key features of the Cisco GLC-TE transceiver module include:
-
Interface: The GLC-TE module has an LC duplex connector that plugs into the SFP slot on Cisco switches and routers.
-
Data Rate: It supports a data rate of 1 Gbps (Gigabit per second), allowing for high-speed network connectivity.
-
Cable Compatibility: The GLC-TE transceiver module is compatible with Category 5e or Category 6 unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) copper cables, which are commonly used for Ethernet connections.
-
Transmission Distance: It supports a maximum transmission distance of up to 100 meters (328 feet) over Category 5e or 6 cables.
-
Hot-Swappable: The module is hot-swappable, which means it can be inserted or removed from a compatible device without powering down the device or disrupting the network operation.
-
Cisco Compatibility: The GLC-TE module is designed to work specifically with Cisco networking equipment, including switches and routers that have SFP slots.
This transceiver module is commonly used when there is a requirement to connect Ethernet devices using copper cables rather than fiber optics. It allows for the flexibility to leverage existing copper cabling infrastructure in networking environmentS.
